Cold morning warm days. Fall in Texas. Pulled into work one morning and pulled my jacket out of the rear trunk. WoW. It was toasty warm in the trunk and got me to thinking.
It's just the largest Heat Exchanger you can ask for. What about running a hose with a small inline fan through the targa clip cups down to the cabin heat inlet and pulling heat from the rear trunk and into the cabin?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Your ideas on how to make this work please. |

Conceptually it might work, but it would be so inefficient that you'd drive a 100 miles before maybe feeling any heat in the cabin.
How about simply wrapping soft copper tubing around the exhaust pipes and then tapping them into the inputs in the engine bay? |
