My new C36 intake

I now have a large K&N pod filter mounted just behind my bumper in an area that can only pick up cold air, and lots of it!
It made a noticable difference in performance and its loud! Sounds like it would eat small children! And at just under 6000 RPM it gets an almost Vtecish VVT noise ;D

The stock air box has cold air sucking in. But your set up sucks in more cold air! I like mine quiet.

Yeh, my setup is basically the same as 2phasts except I used a stainless piping.

Rains not really an issue, I dont see puddles that deep very often

And my car is usually only driven in the dry.

looks good

I have the same exact car as urs and my setup is also the same. I took my passengers side foglamp out as well just to ensure that i'm getting as much air as possible. But, just like the others said, WATCH OUT FOR WATER!!!! I've already gone through that nightmare once. I thought the 'ol girl was hydrolocked for sure.
