LOL! Surely it just gets clogged up?

I remember having a cold air feed on my ibiza quite low, used to shit myself when it rained!

It wouldn't filter exhaust fumes would it. Only dust and shit.

True. But any filter would suck shitty fumes in through the front of our cars, especialy forced inductions. what about standard cold air feeds? they go directly to the front of the cars so in reality it does the same thing as this. A good idea imo but i agree with it being shit for normal road use, take it on the strip and track days and it would do its justice

Surely its just the same as having a few air intakes leading into your air box.

The longer the piping is to you inlet, id imagine it to be worse.

Cant see this being too much good.
