Hi, today i fitted the kit. It sounds AWESOME
 proper growly Here's the Setup (UK 3S-GE), i have a heat shield on it to try to stop it sucking in hot air:  Now the thing is, the heat shield stops me being able to point the cold air feed from under the car straight at the filter so it kinda just points across it:  Is this a problem?  -------------------- |

Heres my setup atm, its sucking in too much hot air from the engine and isnt as efficient. i think im gonna go with the cold air feed rather than a heat shield or air box.

Hey, I'd say it's better to have it going down to the tray, there's a handy hole/scoop in the bottom of the tray to attach the tubing to, it's easy to fix there and is away from the radiator at the front which gives off a lot of heat. The air from underneath is guaranteed to be nice and cold  You'll notice the difference for sure. -------------------- |
