While I'm on the subject of CAIs with my last couple of posts I thought I'd start a thread with this head-in-the-clouds idea I had a while back.
Can you route some piping from your A/C ducts to your CAI? Like, say cut a hole in the CAI near the filter and route some more pipe from the A/C duct to the hole and blow super cold air directly into the intake (while literally closing off the ducts to the vents to get all the air from the A/C fan to the intake)? I wonder what benefit that would have. I guess the extra power gained by the colder air would be offset by the extra strain the A/C compressor puts on the engine, kind of like that supercharger inefficiency effect.
I don't know. I thought it was cool (pun intended). Let's see some feedback from someone who knows what the hell they're talking about.
