talk to cobb about the cold air box and....

[SPEEDYHANS]

ok so i called cobb and i asked them if they would make a fog light replacement for there cold air box and the told me "that they like to make there paddocks i a way that u don't need to remove stock part" so i went on by asking cris what can i do to show that some of us want something like this done. he told me to start a thread and if u get enough signature they will take it under consideration.

this is more or less what it showed look like

what do u guys think

[mordant80]

Hmmm, I think I'd prefer if the fog light stayed, but the area right around the fog light was opened up.

Agreed.

I agree as well, that could be kind of cool.

What did they say about the cold air box?

Thanks for the info

They could also open up part of the grill that diverts are into the intercooler and batter box and have that open up and blow right at the intake but that kind of defeats the purpose of their cold air box now that I think about it.

[SPEEDYHANS]

no one else would do this

[jaydubz]

Thanks to the OP for approaching Cobb about this option! I actually am all for a direct ram air option. I would prefer to keep my fog lights in but I tend to think there is certainly ram air options in the center of the grill, either way I am all for this option! Count me in Cobb!

[SPEEDYHANS]

how

[jaydubz]

I though for sure this thread would have more traffic than this!

[djthom]

i'd do it if i could keep my foggers

[jaydubz]

Hey Hans, maybe someone on these threads could specify a proper design To give a better idea of what this device will appear like? Can anyone sketch something out?

[SPEEDYHANS]

ok what aout something like this

I don't see how they would go about doing this?

Right on through the head lights?

Maybe a vented hood would do the trick :o *Buys CF vented hood*

[SPEEDYHANS]

not a head light but get the air from the front grill

[Kain]

Prolly feed from the same duct that redirects to the TMIC and battery.

yea thats what im talking about

get the air from the left gill vent and use it for the cold air box

[CWPspeed3]

I think that would be the best idea, like a cheaper version of the autoexe ram air intake system thats ridiculously priced.

[jlocurto]

agreed

[controlo]

i think a ram duct where the fog light opening is would be cool for people with a CAI.

U CAN SAY THAT IT WOULD BE BETOR THE HAVING IT COME IN BY THE FENDER

[dkswim]

why

[SPEEDYHANS]

why

because u get the ram air effect and its cold air

[dkswim]

well you can have the ram air without removing the fog light. for cai the air is not comeing in from the fender its comeing from the front of the car main grill on the right side of the grill thats where they should get the air from functional and no need to remove your fog light unless you realy want to. dont belive me look at your car
