Anyone every spot one of these bad boys on a dc5? do they exist? if not, we gotta make a mold-$$$$ (similar to this VVVVV)



and this



hope these gentlemen don't mind me posting their cars!

the idea, of course, to get the dense, colder air navigated to the intake box (or filter) using this front piece along with some 3" ducting or larger--

Edit: Had an idea before for using a oem or aftermarket fog light housing for the cover-and the ducting routed from behind to the stock box or something similar

Let me know any thoughts on this one

 

a blox velocity stack pretty much works the same way but i think they do make one similiar for the ep that mounts at the foglight location

 

The only ducts I know of for the DC5 use the foglight location and they are OEM Type-R brake ducts...

 

You could make your own, and it would be quite simple. Just remove fog light cover, rig up some dryer vent ducting and route it up to the intake.

here is mine

 

Did you just use a Dremel to cut that? The cuts look really clean.

 

i could never put my filter that low around here. hydrolock would be certain.

 

^^ unless you live in AZ, lol...

 

cai's are a no no in louisiana lol

 

I'd have to agree, and say that pretty much goes for Seattle as well haha!

 

how do i know? i've hydrolocked a b16 before in my 99 EM1. talk about suck. then proceeded to push it half a mile home in the rain. put the car in neutral, let off the gas and still got water sucked into the engine.

 

Yeah, the only reason I have been lucky in Oregon is because my filter is covered by the under body tray and fender well lining. It is still low but just slightly protected. I have thought about having a winter intake and a summer intake so that I could make an air duct for the brakes and stuff.

 

I actually carry a SRI in the hatch in case of emergencies...

 

Aww, very smart of you!!

 

How do you swap that easily? I have to get the wheel off to get my AEM CAI out. It is freaking down there!

 

Hahah thats me corner weighting my buddies 96 R!

 

I just remove the injen rubber neck and swap intakes. Heres a photo

 

is it just me or is there no transmission on that one?! lol jk

that fog light idea seems more and more like the way to go- thanks for the input

 

I use fred flinstone power. lol

Transmission is out for rebuild. She's gonna be beastly

 

i was about to say i see a empty tranny mount and no tranny lol.

 

^^Damn, that's pretty simple, but smart!!! You're a rocket scientist, lol...

 

I forgot to mention I have fog lights installed already. since the car is an 02- cuts had to be made to fit the housing in, leaving me the option of the fog light housing I have already and just removing the light assembly behind it running said air ducting to the stock box and/ or filter to my SRI.....
