has anyone done this mod?

[91TSIawdOHIO]

im not sure what to call it, but me and my friend were playin around and we decided to try to get more air into my 91 tsi's intercooler, so we went to lowes and bought some silver, flexible a/c piping for about $6. we also bought a plastic tube that pulls air into it. i will try to get pics. Then , we taped the piping to the end of the plastic thing, and mounted it under my bumper under the passenger side fog light w/ some string. we then cut into the intercoolers air dam behind the fog light, and ran the tube up through there, so more air would flow through to the intercooler. it seemed like it added a noticable amount horses to my car. i was wondering if anyone had ever heard of, or did this, mod before. thanks

-Will gain even more ponies if you stick a SMIC from a MKIV in there.

Is it cage-cleaning day at the Home or something?

i didnt think running a FMIC and a SMIC will work, i mean, the point of a FMIC is to replace the SMIC, they dont add benefit

no he ment replacing the stock sidemount with the mkiv smic.

-I never said using both a SMIC & a FMIC.
