I have ppl giving me different info.
Bought the car with std air box then swapped it for k&n cone filter because of better air flow etc. My mechanic is saying to put the std one back in because of the outside temps (mid30s') and engineer bay temps, I'd be losing power sucking in hot air.
He suggested modding the std air box. Using 2.5in flex hose a cutting a hole on the front r/h side of air inlet then down through the hole just behind the headlight then drill same size hole underneath the front bumper in the plastic to increase cold air.
I thought I could take it 1 step further and drill a hole in the side of the lower left side of the air box and run flex pipe somewhere also but this would look that appealing.
