Me and my mate are always trying to get a better airflow for our cars and i cant get a bigger cold air feed, currently using a cupra airbox and intake with a K&N panel just had a thought today about a bonnet scoop but you think or will it look sh*t ?

:lol::lol::lol:

If you get louvres pressed into your bonnet it could look cool. http://www.coollouvres.com/

Easiest will probably be a feed from the front bumper somewhere...

Ive heard they give you 10bhp per scoop you add on. :lol:

I would look for a feed in the bumper somewhere. Remove a fog light perhaps, or if you can get into just beside it.

Always thinking about a cold air feed myself its a shame theres no room for anything in the bay! You could always relocate the battery to the boot and create a heat shield! I dont fancy doing it but others may :)

Say WUT?!
Airbox NEEDS to be bigger though and it still needs a cold air feed.

:lol: Yeah sorry. Been off work sick today and my mind whet wandering! :cartman:

I always thought doing something like this the headlight would be cool. You would get loads of cold air right to the filter (if you put the battery in the boot.

Problem is there ain't a lot of room in the Ibiza 20vt engine bay to route some ducting from cool fresh air to the filter. :shrug:

I've been in talks with an old friend who did exactly that to his Astra VXR, Ducted it straight through the high beam, Totally legal and effective.
I'll let you know how I get on.
