2G Ram Air Headlight?

Looks good, just smooth everything out and paint it!

I have had an idea like this for awhile now. However it is a little different. I have just been deciding on the vent I want to use and where I want it exactly but this is the basic idea. It would be to put a vent molded into the hood right above the headlight that will direct the air to the filter in the stock position. Here is a pic of the vent I was thinking of using and the spot where I have thought of putting the vent. What do you guys think?

I wouldn't use a duct like that. maybe a NACA duct.

It's for a miata, but it's sound nevertheless.

That is a big freckin turbo! That and some super nice ducting work. I like the low radiator. Actually I like the whole car.

we do these mods as well, if anyone was interested. check out the free lancer section.

Im building one now for my avenger (different i know) , but the inside will be CF, i think it will be a clean touch.

It's not going thru the headlight but I figure a good alternative none the less. Think it cost me alil over 100.00 to have the OP make it for me.

I'd like to see that red dsm from the side view.

Here a CF duct I came up awhile ago(see the dust?) that goes into the factory SMIC location it was going to feed cool air to "another" area I wanted to cool and just never finished. It just an idea to throw out there so your not hacking up your headlight. I do like the headlight feed for the track, but not on a DD.
Also as far as water conceerns K&N makes a filter sock which goes over your filter and helps prevent water from being ingesteaded by the motor. Is it 100% water proof but water repelant. I run just in case I do run into ran.

the headlight idea is great...ive been thinking of it as well.... i would only cut out the high beam and make a vent sending the air to the intake filter if necessary...allowing you to retain your headlights for daily driving
what do you think??

 

[jpmxrider489]

I think cutting the high beam would work. But maybe a better Idea is getting rid of the fog light and make some type of duct for it. Just an idea.

nvm to my old post as i just realized that the 1st page already has what i had thought of
damn that came out nice too
