Default cold air intake

dude i cant figure where to put my cold air intake i want it to be down inside the fender so i can get good cold air but i think im gonna have to cut a spot out of engine bay to drop it a little lower. would this make any difference whatsoever or should i just leave it alone.

Wouldn't it be better to cut a hole in the hood? Colder air and much less chance of sucking in water if you go that route.

If you have a proper cold air intake its already made so you dont have to worry about cutting or moving anyeay

What brand of cold air intake you have? They are usually made to go down through the fender pipe wise and then you just attach the filter after. Take a pic of it to see. Is it like slightly sticking up and filter right on hole?

You're looking in the wrong place.
Under your stock intake box is a hole the cold air goes through.

Wait you dont even have the intake yet? The intake will give you ihstructions on how to install it. When you get it and have problems then come back and make a thread having issues.

Plus if you look in the faq section there is alot of info in there about intakes
