A lot, actually. Laying in a heap after a good eight hour project.
Heat has always been my nemesis, whether in the intake or just generally.
So today, I took out the grinder and made some modifications to the hood and bumper.
-cut two vents in the hood. One with aluminum below it to direct airflow toward the firewall and downpipe. The other to direct airflow over the intake tract and front of the engine bay.
-made a ram air intake. Cut some of the front bumper and shroud out, and constructed aluminum ducting from the front of the bumper directly to the snorkel.
All told, I'm very happy. Feel free to reply or dm for questions about how I went about doing the work, or just replicate it with your own twist.
Ooh. Also removed my symposer and ran the hose right to that unused nipple on the airbox, drilling said nipple out. When you are on full boost YOU KNOW IT. REEEEEEEEE.
