a la my picture
id fit a scoop n put it behind
well the pipe isn't very long and I can't really manuevere it so it's not touching hot parts or moving parts. I can't figure it anyway

Think I may get another air filter, lol. This is the viper filter and cost me £60 from Halfords (in a used condition though), so I thought you know, it'd be pretty amazing but unless the bonnet is open (or it's fitted properly), it sounds like mine...lol

looks better now its fitted right way round. :D i have my cold feed poking out of front bumper by lower grill. i dropped it down behind light and it fitted fine (had to make hole in bumper) i have a 2.5 V6 engine so space is virtually not existant and it clears all parts etc etc :D

unfortunatly you can only fit in a cone filter, no room for anything else :lol: so to stop the cone drawing in hot air from around the engine i fitted a cold feed pipe! i did buy one of these sealed kits but that was also to big :lol:
