   hi i have a viper induction kit fitted but i dont know where to put the cold air feed as i want it outside of the car. i was thinking that i shud put it in one of the holes at the bottom in the middle on the same level as the fogs. any idea.

   personally i dont like feeds being that low down! its easy to get water and shit in.
   
   if you look by the radiator there should be a plastic pannel! i personally would try and see if i could cut a hole and run it from here.

   will get some during the week for you buddy, ive got a long peice of tubing that runs from the throttle body down to next to the rad, the only problem i can see with it is the fact the filter is soo close to the manifold/down pipe and also the air feed tubing is sat about an inch off the downpipe

   i forgot to mention ive mounted the filter right behind the front grille so the cold air is just hitting the filter straight out

    quiet a few people have done that! seems quite popular for morrete owners with a cold air feed! not sure if it makes a massive difference though tbh

    dont really condole cutting into the slam panel its there for a reason to add strength incase of a crash id just use the hole where the standard on was, put the pipe over it you dont have to use that round end on the tubing exactly

    get the alu flexi pipe from tumble dryers (i dont mean that nasty plastic stuff).
    I got some for mine and its good stuff. Go into any diy shop and ask for it, it comes in huge lengths aswell for a small price
