My new cold air feed trial fit
« on: March 10, 2009, 04:27:18 pm »
well guys thought i would try something new as i wanted to keep the aircover and its a trial fit before i cut a normal foglight grill up and have it sitting flush with a black wire mesh to go inside to stop it sucking animals up it  :evilgrin:

Looks interesting but I'm sure with all the extra air turbelence from that new piping, an intake like the carbonio would fare better.

Also and IMO, with a turbo car, you'll  not see any real world difference in post turbo intake temperatures  to make it worthwhile.

Yes but you still have the filter, no doubt an aftermarket one, in the stock location.   :smiley:
