The path through the stock air scoop behind the grille looks quite torturous, and I'd like to get cool air from a high pressure area. The fog light looks like an ideal place, although testing may show that it holds no benefit over the stock scoop due to its location.

 

I'm just looking to see what kind of data exists for those who have tried it.

Thanks to legacy2005 for your observations about your setup. Time for some instrumented testing, I guess.

 

We all seek to maximize n in PV=nRT (the ideal gas law), this applies to NA or forced induction. Colder, higher pressure air is always better, be it straight into the throttle body or compressor.

So did you just plumb it into the resonator hole in the stock airbox?

 

I need to measure the air pressure at the stock air intake point and at the fog light hole with a manometer. I'd still rather relocate the fogs.

Has anyone put together a cold air intake that uses the pocket where the passenger side fog light resides as a "ram air" inlet, and relocated the fog lights? Seems like it would work. Plenty of room in there.
