Guys..

My airflow pipes going to my Pipercross are going no-where..

there pointing stright down..is this going to make a big difference?

there isnt exactly alot of room to put these inlets..dont really wanna start to cut plastic panels away but i feel these arnt getting the air-input whats needed...

seems to me the filter is sucking alright but not being fed Air quickly which is the main reason its there..

well..got something to do after work tomorrow then :)

Hi Jamz, another z0ner from pompey!
Unless you're going for a ram air effect the filter pointing down probably gets cooler air which is denser and'll give better performance. The only other way is cut a way through the front or take out the main beam which don't look so good on a nice road going cab!
Maybe see you around.
