Ive been thinking about the possibility of getting a cold air feed from one of the blanked off vents then having a replacment filter in the stock filter housing.

anyone tried this?
I seem to remember in the dim and distant past that Rick - the sponsor - did this.
Don't know if the thread is still there - but there were lots of 'how to' pics.
I did this a while ago, you need to cut a hole in the bottom section of the air box and epoxy a 3 to 4 inch dia tube into it, then run a pipe from this to the plastic divider that seperates the engine bay from the area behind the drivers side false vent (its the same position that most CAI use) i used push fit drain pipe and bends but if you can pick up one of the cheap fleabay CAI's and do a bit of cut and shut it could look quite good
this shows two feeds as i used 3" pipe and i did not want to go less cross section than the standard intake opening in the air box
After my 3 hour drive to sheffield in the baking sun ( lovly tan )
I was just thinking i need to get some proper air to the induction. Ill get to work on this when i get back home, next week project sorted
Providing this CEL error does not rear its ugly head again.

I like the look of this!! i guess the picture misses the really hard work of getting to the front air supply. I like the use of the heat reflective tape also.
