Cold air feed pipe

[Clarkie172]

ive got a bmc on my car but no cold air feed. where do ppl run theirs from?is it just a case of getting a feed and putting it down the front right had side near battery but lower? and will i be losing any power because of it?i would have thought so? also any pics would be good!

i move pikcups to the lower grille, infront of the rad.

Im in the same boat mate.

I have a BMC but no air feed because i havnt had chance to take the bottom bumper off yet.

Ive had a few 172/172Cup drivers try my car and neither have said that they notice it being sluggish as a result.

However, it cant be doing it any favours. Ive actually got an extra lower grill ready for the cutting. Just havnt had a chance. Planning on passing the feed down past the battery though.

whats the best thing to use, just some of that flexi pipe stuff?

 

[BenR]

yup, but if your not wanting to spend stupid amoutns, all of it will require replacing at some point as the walls wear through.
