thanks

This is what I did in my FProd car:

Inlet in the fog light opening of the bumper.

The 6" od aluminum flex hose comes from McMaster Carr.

Its a bit more expensive than galvanized straight ducting but makes a smooth route and was fairly easy to install as one continuous piece.

The duct is mounted high on the firewall because I don''t use the stock engine cooling system.

Hey Chris - Is that another duct on the hood between your turn signal (used to be) and engine duct?
