[QUOTE="DarkAccoon, post: 833669, member: 436"] just one problem i never seem to get out of my head larrr i have thought of this idea some time back already but never did started on the project due to few reasons here are my reasoning: 1) by the time the cold air from the cabin travel to your filter, it would be "not that" cold anymore 2) i also dun see the purpose of using more power to generate power reasoning 2 will be explained here in order for the suction of cold air, air cond needs to be on and have to put it slightly colder than usual = more power is used to generate those "cool" air, and what you gain from that is slightly less heavy feeling on the pedals but since more power is taken, then you still need to press more to accelerate so it just goes round and round without any much benefits anyway, here is my original plan since i am driving a wira so i have an air-cond output below my feet i was gonna attach a hose to the output and then insulate the hose with insulflex to prevent 'reasoning 1' then i will have the option of either to sent cold air into the filter box or not just a average sized hose will be attached to the filter box as i DO want to breathe also wan marrr [/QUOTE]
