Anyway, very cool mod!
just clean or pull it out from the inside. Even if the hole was clogged your car will still run fine. If they shove something down your intake then thats another story.

Sure about that skippy? Suppose you attach the Forge Brake Duct Cooling Kit to that inlet, so that fresh, cold air is routed to your brake calipers and rotors. Suppose that would do anything for performance?

What about directing fresh, cool air right onto the intake?

Keep on hatin', it's SO COOL.

HAHAHA fresh cool air? From where? The 90 degree heat here in va in the summer is certaintly not cool, and sitting in traffic its def not fresh. I mean yeah, go ahead and spend 350 dollars plus ducting so your brakes can have some of that fresh cool air.

p.s. thhe car comes stock with ducting to route all that good air to the intake. Pointless mod. Back when i only had a mustang it was common sense that unless its RAM air you aint gettin no performance rice ***

no haters in here..its just that for less then $350 you can get an intake that give you more power, a down pipe for more power or even tuning the car...for more power
a pipe with a hole into headlight for $350...hmmm again thats like a lip for $720
BTW you can get upper and lower intercooler hard piping for $400 (thats $50 more) http://www.hopupracing.com/xsenrahapiki.html

i quite like it, perhaps adding some sort of filter inside the duct itself or mesh on the inside to prevent leaves/bugs/paper cups ;P entering the engine bay
