First off, sorry if this has been answered before, but I didn't see any threads about it. Most cars I've seen on these forums (including mine) have more of a WAI rather than a true CAI. How would one go about making it cold rather than just warm? I was thinking of obviously running it lower in the engine bay to a cooler spot, but its a pretty tight squeeze by the battery. It also seems to me that there isn't a lot of air getting to the intake, at least not as much as there should be. Instead of just running it lower into the engine bay, I was also thinking of just directing cooler air up there... but I'm not sure how that would work. Ideas/suggestions/flames are all welcome (well not the last one so much.. ;) )



EDIT: Changed the word exhaust to intake... love long days at work :P

the best way is to run more tubing into the fender, but I'm not sure how its set up on a 96. Post up your engine size so others can answer better. Also what do you mean buy air getting to the exhaust?

Sorry. I've got a 2.4L. But yea, I never fully developed the idea of getting more air to the intake (meant to say intake rather than exhaust *DOH*). Sorry about that!
