I'm curious about the filter, I see it has been brought up previously in this thread but with no real answers. I have a buddy with a vortech 350z that had a similar type of filter, he kept running into issues with it getting clogged up quickly so he managed to hack together an intake out of silicon tubing that runs into the bumper and put a massive intake filter on that, the same should theoretically be possible for us, right? My only concern would be if the silicon isn't stiff enough it might collapse with enough air trying to flow through it.

It's a lot easier on the 350 it's more central with the hole

But can be done with a lot of work and blood sweat and tears
