silly question, but why cut a hole in the front bumper for an air intake when you got spotlight holes?

I was gonna get the long ram induction kit, which would of relocated the filter there? and if your gonna heat wrap the manifold ( good luck getting it off) why not wrap the induction pipe?

You can do it with washers/packing Gizmo...

It was a big craze with the turbo lot a while ago...supposedly better for ventilation...but we ran a test on a few different cars and it ended up actually being hotter under there than before.

One was 14 degrees hotter
