Just finished installing EZ-Boys POD box + POD, and have run the piping down to the front pretty much the only place I could see it getting any feasable amount of air...

Anyone who's installed a POD box and piping, can you inform me if that's a good spot to put it or of there's a better spot etc?

Also, got another little vid/sound clip, it's only 1mb - http://www.ecn.net.au/~belated/revving.avi

On a ralliart you are a bit stuck. Under the car will be a low pressure spot but it shouldnt make too much difference.

Seems to be an ok spot, does it make noticable difference?
Be carefull when it come to water tho i can see it forcing a lot of water right up the pipe if your going fast into a puddle :shock:

water could probably make it up there especially if high humidity; but thats another reason for the filter

from the looks of it its not really point towards the front of the car. wat u can to is buy ur self a 90 degree angle PVC pipe from bunnings and attach that to the end of the pipe so its facin front. or u can jus buy a small lenght of PVC pipe and takke the top chunk of it out which will act like a scoop and will direct the air to ur CAI. i think EZ Boy has done this. i did something similar to mine and ye it worked a treat but had to remove it co i bought cheap pipes from supercheap which started to kink.
