How is it supposed to get air in the wheel-well? Most CAI's that I've seen are under the hood...why does this one go down into the wheel well?

A dremel with one of those side-cutting drill bits works good.

Air is everywhere. It will get it though the bumper though. CAI under the hood =WAI, warm air intake

You will get a better flow of air inside the wheel well, cause the front bumper being open. It always has a fresh flow of air. Unlike inside your engine bay. Stuck behind the radiator, with no fresh flow of air. Also hot air from the heat off of the engine/exhaust. As you can see in this pic, my filter always has an abundant fresh source of air.

I just took that pic, damn its cold out side....lol
When your filter is inside the engine bay, its normally called a WAI= Warm Air Intake, or a short ram intake.

if its under the hood then it is not CAI.
CAI = cold air intake
what you are talking about is WAI
WAI = warm air intake/ short ram
