Ideally I'd like to build a carbon fiber airbox in that area in front of the battery, that uses the std ford airfilter element and has cold air induction from under the headlight. Kinda like a slim vertical airbox. One day...The 'plenum pipe thingo' is not close to the bonnet, plenty of room. But you cannot mount the throttle body without it, the angles make it hit the bonnet. Even if you get it straight, then you have to move the computer etc. no way.where I've got the blowoff positioned it is perfect - it's right near the pipe going into the throttle body so it has the least amount of distrubance to the intake tract. And when it vents, it has all that hose along the front of the radiator to fill before it gets to the intake pipe. So, technically I reckon it's close to perfect. Oh yeah, and note the size of pipe coming from the outlet of the cooler all the way into the throttle body is the same size for maximum breathing. Most kits (even Nizpro) have smaller piping coming out of the cooler, then using a reducer from the throttle body to the pipework. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
