Im aware that if I put the dose pipe near the battery and power steering, it will suck in too much hot air and will reduce performance. If I got the battery relocation kit and put the dose pipe and pod filter where the battery usually sits would it not suck in as much hot air and not loose any power?

To get a decent result from a dose pipe, in terms of performance, you need to build an airbox around it (trust me, it's loud enough on higher than stock boost) and relocate the battery away from where the airbox will need to go.

Would a dose pipe reduce performance by much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
