Cold Air Feed

Looking at giving my RX8 an induction kit, I noticed on hot days the power is noticably down. I'm sure a cold air feed would help ease this a bit.

Also when looking at the standard intake system it actually looks quite good (apart from the air intake going across the top of the rad making the air warm). I'm no expert but from what I could see, putting a Revi cold air ram on and a k&N element in (plus maybe some insulation on the box, to stop it heating up), I doubt you could get much better than that from a power point of veiw... Am I along the right lines or completly off the mark?

Theres a thread around here called "intakes, intakes, intakes" I believe. You may find what your looking for there.

Many threads available. I have a K&N panel filter in the stock box with the Odula V2. Love it and better mileage. See Odula threads for more answers and questions.

You might also try the throttle body bypass.
