No point having an airbox without a cold air intake.
Using sheetmetal and my favourite tape I made a shape that would funnel air from the existing hole in the bumper up to the front of the airbox, once again having to work around those pesky intercooler pipes.
Again, the finished product is never going to win me any show car prizes, but it definitely controls the air and sends it where I want it to go.
Interestingly, when the car is stationary and you give the throttle a blast, you can see the lid f the airbox suck in. Not bad considering the lid is 'sealed' with velcro.
