Anyways of getting cold air in a stock box?

As i know alot of you are aware of the "U" shaped piping in the EK Air Box, is there a pipe which can replace that to a pipe that comes down for Cold air? would it do anything? or would it just be as good to remove the "U" piping and let air flow straight from the bottom of the box.?

just cut that u thing in half so it draws air in from behind the bar.

read hot 4's magazine.. they featured making ur stock box into a cold air intake many many times

I took out the U shape pipe, make a hole on fount pumper and get a 3" prastic pipe to feed the cold air into the box.....very effective indeed.

PS:To maximise the effect of CAI, u can take your right hand side head light off!!! :D

go to like a hardware store and make up some custom shit.

usually consisting of cable ties and duct tape. :) i got this on my eg into a EG6 stock box, should be similar to your eK. these are old pic, its a bit different now.

i cut a hole in the front bar where the fake 'brake duct' is, blah blah just use some common sence when making some ducting up.

i know these pics look ghetto but least it works
