If someone is interested in ramming air into the intake, then ModShack's approach, modified for the Stillen intake, is the easiest/cleanest. Using the openings by the fangs, and a hose to connect those to an air box (a cylinder) that fits right around the filters. In that case, since the route has a large vertical displacement from the bottom to the top of the bumper, very few droplets of water would actually make it to the filter, and those would be caught by the filter element. Trying to ram air from somewhere like the Mine's openings would require a path that would first travel down or back, before turning around, so that the water would be trapped there through gravity or inertia, respectively. There is room to travel down, but in that case once again ModShack's approach makes more sense. There is little room to travel back, so that's probably out of the question. My opinion then is that the Mine's openings should be considered but not in the ramming fashion, simply to get fresh air behind the top of the bumper, and therefore into the Stillen intake. One could even optimize it a little by having a simple 90º elbow turned inboard from the opening, but without an extension or hose connecting it to the filters. |
