This was my solution. Enclosure seals against the bonnet and has the extra cold air intake from under the front of the car. The enclosure is also wider than the MACE CAI so that it takes cool air from the gap beside the radiator. I will be replicating this on the VX at some stage. the MACE unit is nice and does a decent job but I like to be able to see the filter when I lift the bonnet for ease of maintenance and access to the headlight. I have the same cold air intake attachment on the MACE box in the VX and it definitely makes a difference.vlad01 wrote:Well its better than the stock air box for sure but once the engine is worked it starts to limit it as well.
Honestly I think the best option is just a straight pod in the engine bay. The loss of air density from having no CAI is marginal at best, a good trade off for having actual unrestricted flow.
