Ok so heres my idea for a cold ram air intake:
I have a AEM V1 CAI and the filter sits right in front of the passanger side tire. So what I am planning on doing is cutting out the fake vents and making some kind of snorkel that routes air into the filter and will bottle neck over it. I am going to make the snorkel out of either one of these

Or I will bend and mold one of these to fit

or

Its kind of like this JDM one:

What do you guys think?

AP2 dominance! 2QYK4U owned us, even with using Autowave's dyno, not church's crack ass dyno. I think when this bottom end goes, I'm going 2.2 down under
Congrats Justin, your car rocks!

wildcard...comparing Justin's Autowave and Church dyno, his correction factor was .915 to bring church down to the correct numbers. Use that correction for me, I want mine to be true and honest and that brings me down to a once rated 215whp.

With you correction factor set at .915, he's the new plot:


Justin still owns us all

It's amazing how much more grunt that 2.2l of Justin's has...
I'm even more amazed that it seems my AEM and ITB's just barely got me on par with the rest of you guys. I think I'm going to check my compression, and see what kind of numbers I have.
...Could you imagine ITB's on Justin's car?
