hi

im having the problem of too much hot air going into my K&N Induction and am planing to fit some induction tubing but aint sure were to put it for the best flow.

the only place i see possible is to lead it straight down over the arch liner so that the air entrance is just under the bumper but i aint too keen on puttin in a easily viewed place, would be alot easier if the i had a body kit on with grill mesh but i dont

is there any alteratives ?

any ideas to reduce heat and get better air flow???

any suggestions would be great

thanks all

The pipe doesn't have to be sticking out of the bottom of the bumper to be effective, but it helps.

Difference in air pressure should be enough to get the air up the tube over to your filter.
