Cold Air Intake System, Anyone familiar with OS Intakes system for 2.0L Options

[pvollma]

Is anyone familiar with the cold air intake system from OS Intakes? I've exchanged a few emails with the guy, but he seems very cautious about revealing a lot of information about his system, I guess for fear that I will steal his idea. I like the fact that it picks up air from below the car, and includes a hydro-lock device to prevent water from entering the system. Let me know if you have any real experience with this vendor -- not really looking for comments on why I shouldn't consider it.

Anybody ever tried to use NACA ducts in the rocker panels to get cold air intake?

My thought is this:

1. Ditch the jack points in the longs. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)

2. Put NACA ducts in this area (or just behind the jack points if step #1 above is not desired) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) Note: The duct should go through the long (ie. into the interior of the long).

3. Run the piping up through the longs and out through a hole in the engine bay sheet metal (hell hole area). (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) Heck, there is already a hole there anyways on most cars! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

4. Note: This would be done on driver and passenger sides with corresponding hole in the the driver's side "heck hole" (since it is usually not as bad as the passenger side).

Ok, that should be clear as mud. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/brain.gif)
