It's where you'd expect - between the air pipe from the filter box, and the alloy charge pipe

I have fitted an afeter market single piston vented DV and I was wondering where the hell I can get the blanking plug for the air intake. I got a standard fitting kit with my DV and I dont realy see the point in buying the full SRI fitting kit if im not going to use it. I have tryed to contact a few tuning companys who sell the apropriate fitting kit but they will not sell me the blanking plug on its own :frown: .

Dose anyone know where I can buy one??????
