BTW - GREAT thinking. I love the plumbing path you took.... I wish a full kit that includes the routing of air from the fangs would be released.

Right, the idea is to try and force high pressure ambient air into the side of the filters facing the fascia with the goal of reducing intake air temperatures. The faster your going the more "cold" air will be redirected into the area in front of the intakes!

I'm hoping once I get a complete exhaust system installed, I can really see what difference this solution makes, but with such a bottle necked exhaust its hard to tell. Maybe when its not always 100 degrees outside
