Its just home ducting i brought from homebase for £8.

More or less it will reflect heat compared to it just sitting there in the open.

watch your fingers, the pipe is razor sharp when aligning ;)

I guess it would depend on how heat reflective the pipe is really?

Kenni I'm looking to do something like that? what are the gains like? if at all? surely at least it keeps cold air on it - rather than hot air from the engine...

how much did the pipe cost you?

i tried to fit cooker hood ducting into mine bjut found it was too big and i couldn't really get it fitted anywhere and it was all loose and bendy.

You want propper ducting.... go to halfords and buy the 'green' cold air feed. or find a supplier of the same type of ducting if you want to save money.

I guess you could use what ya like as long as it gets as much cold air to your breathing parts as possible. good luck

If its one of those plastic ones then i wouldn't advise it as they melt.

If its alluminium then perhaps you could if it will fit.
