    in my car i use this flexi pipe that runs from the front of the car to the inlet of the plastic piping...i've also removed the resonator and ran another pipe thats directed to the front of the car

    last night i was on the freeway and stopped at the freeway petrol station and popped the bonnet, its amazing how cooled the piping and the airbox were...

    i also use x-force headers, stock cat and 2inch catback made by a local exhaust place...
    rawr, your car seems to be everything mine isnt.

    the engine bay is friggin annoying with the piping and wiring blocking off my mounting points for my strut braces.
    i've got an pipe running from the air resonator to outside the car too.
    but my engine cant seem to stay cool. i swapped to anti boil coolant, and it still steams out after short sprint races on the track. should run a little cooler when my stainless steel extractors arrive, supposedly stainless steel stays cooler. then i'll heatwrap it.

    with regards to the image of the pod intake system, i find that the flow rate is much higher when you move the piping a little more to the right from the pic. airflow is massive around the battery of an ED.

    Current Performance Modifications to ED6:
    not telling, but it involves a semi-quad carb setup, and lots and lots of compression.
