LOL then the conundrum is whether the A/C will provide more power from the cold air it will throw at the intake or take away more power because it is adding stress to the engine...quick, someone give this a shot!

funny thing is....i'll put money on the fact that that'll make more power than just a short ram or regular CAI...

not because of where hte filters located, but because of the length. we did a LOT (i.e 100+ dyno pulls at Eurospeed before alex sold the dyno to howard at RLZ) testing intake lenghts on a y8 a few years back....and, the longer we went, the more power it made. might sound stupid...but this was myself (THE GSRswpandslow), my buddy jason (Jdogg of AEM tuning fame), and the infamous White Alex C.

If it's on length, I vote that someone should custom fab one like theirs, except continue it through to the back of the car and out the hatch! That would be freakin hilarious!!!

Funny you mention that i don't have a fit right now but i have already been mapping out a design for the tubing for the car and am hoping i will be able to get one. The only problem see right now is the intake manifold's position but i think i have a plan
