Air Intake Improvement Idea.....

I was thinking that if I could fabricate a hose the right size and length, that I could run two of them from the holes in the front bumper, up to the air filters. That should, theoretically, increase airflow into the intake. I could use a dremel saw to cut away the water guards(they disrupt airflow)...and figure out another way to keep water out, that way when I'm driving down the interstate in a rainstorm, my engine doesn't suck in three gallons of water. Any ideas on a way to make this happen???

Jason,

That sounds like an excellent idea. You can get details for a ram air system at the Tech Article section on this site, of search the message board archives for "Ram Air".
