air filter relocation to inside bumper

[krikra]

anyone tried this..

Gues it would be the best to get the airfilter out of the engine bay and down in the direct airflow..

All comments are welcome..

I am gonna make the piping one of the next days - unless someone can convince me that its a bad idea.

you can get a anti submurtion check valve that shuts when suction increase could be useful

Should have mentioned that I am going to make a plate to fit the underneath of the bumper (and to close towards the wheel)

In that way the filter would be shielded against water and mud.. But not sure if it will still be a problem??

You must excuse me but I dont know what you mean by this.. Probably cause I am from Denmark and dont know all the fancy words

Please explain what this does?

OK now I know what you mean..

They dont recommend using it with forced induction though.
