I think a cold air intake would be a great add on to our cars, but is there any space???



i have never seen it, anything we can take off or a way to do it??

its not really worth all of the trouble it would be to do it

I saw one where a guy had drilled a hole and ran the pipe around the radiator, and rotayman88's staged upgrade list in the FAQ said that he saw a gain of 6 rwhp on a car like that, so it just depends on if you think it's worth it.

would be anice breather but i dunno if its worth it to do all of that, ill just probably do that cold air box concept

well if you want to; take out the windsheild washer resv, then cut straight down into the brake duct, throw the filter in there. That is striaght down where the stock location is.

hummmm

i never thoguht of that

but do you know anybody that has done that though????

and are you sure this could work???

then your brakes wouldn't be as cool...I'm guessing

1Revvin7 02-04-2003 04:15 PM

yeah thats no big deal, many of the IC kits elimnate them anyhow.

My idea, while not an actual cold air intake in your definition, would be making a cold air box in the bay, then routing cold air from the unused ducting in the front bumper using a divider to keep the air from moving to the radiator.



Heres a pic of what I'm talking about.
