it's cold here in New England now but daaaaaamn the turbo sure does like.

makes me want to fab up a cold air filter setup on it, wonder if it would be worth the trouble? hummmmm...(lucas rubs chin)

 

run some ducting from a bumper opening to the filter, next best thing to a cold-air setup.

 

yeah just vent some air to the turbo...i think if u run a direct pipe spool will slow down

 

I think cold air directly to the turbo would help, but it's mostly the intercooler doing it's job better.

 

my ducting goes to the left hole in my bumper:

tell me about it, i felt the ic for kicks and it was warm on one end and ice cold on the other, i figure if it ingests cold air it couldnt hurt.

the civic body is perfect for this too cause the hole is pre-cut from where the oe resonator orinally was located.

the filter doesnt get wet cause the plastic fender liner is there.

i'll get some u bends and give it a whirl.

 

Ready to run?

 

run where? i like driving, i'm too lazy

 

Nice cool air with a good size FMIC and cold air intake... yummy
