possibly run the intake under the intercooler piping in the engine bay? It would help alot from all the heatsoak wouldn't it?

It would be nice if ptuning made a shield similar to the greddy kit that would block the spal fan blowing air into intake.

This is currently not available. However, we will be looking into this shortly. If there is enough demand we will consider putting it into production as an option to the turbo kit.

I would be interested and its a must in my opinion. Was also thinking just putting filter close to turbo inlet. Suspect the air is cooler there than in current location.

I like this idea. for the cooling plate make it somewhat similar to the stock one. instead of having it sit on top of the bumper have it angle down to the bumper support to direct the air over the intercooler right to the radiator.

We were actually hoping to wait until the winter season to reveal our next option for the PTUNING S2K Turbo System. However, now is probably a good a time as any to go over our original idea for our airbox option.

I'm not sure if you guys remember my first setup at the 2007 HIN. It incorporated a true cold-air airbox that was fed air via vents from the front of the car. This airbox design allowed me to run consistent 124-125 mph trap speeds during a hot 95+ degree day without the need for long cooldowns. This was at about only 434whp (low boost tune)on our DD dyno.

Here's the airbox that we designed for my S2K.

Here's the current setup on our production PTUNING S2000 Turbo System:

When we set out to design the current production PTUNING S2000 Turbo System, we had plans from the get go to eventually offer an optional airbox at a later date. When development started for the production turbo system, we purposely located the air filter, the BOV, the offset fan, and the vacuum block flange at their current locations to make room for the optional airbox. The optional airbox that we have in mind for the turbo system will follow the same concept as my old set-up, but the actual design will be entirely different. Like my old set-up, our proposed airbox will feature a cold air design where the enclosed air filter will be fed fresh air via large ducting. It will isolate the turbo intake air from the hotter surrounding air sitting inside the engine compartment. We'll look into prototyping this optional cold-air airbox in the late fall, early winter timeframe.
