Caldina Cold air intake thoughts...

Post by beerad »

Currently i have a pod filter that inhales off my turbo about where the standard cold air box was.. its not really making much difference even possibly sucking up more hot air, i notice on almost all GTTs ive seen there pod filters are mounted in the same position. Could we get a few of us together and make up some sort of cold air box or cold air ducting from the front bumper? what do you reackon?

I reckon the first step has to be battery relocation..

Yeah my caldinas pod sits about where all of those ones sit, i need to construct away of stopping hot air getting to it and gettin cold air into it, i dont think battery relocation is absolutely nessarsary as factory cold air box reaches down into the inner gaurd area drawing cold air from there we need a way to duct it right into the pod from the front, by the fog light
