Do as above, but plumb the pipe into your airbox. It's all good!:thumbs: | |

Fit a cold air feed. Vent pipe 1m long, from lower grill infront of radiator to underside of the cone with cable tie :thumbs: | |

Induction kit sucks in hot air since it sits too close to the engine, do a search/read the sticky at the top of the forum!!:thumbs: | |
