proly a stupid idea but has a anyone thought or heard of the aircon being replumbed to the airbox? Stuff it, while we're at it why don�t we install a $50 power inverter and duct tape a garden blower to the air box?

im guessing it would make extra power but no were near like 4 psi of boost it would put out enough air

Your using the aircon so there goes your fuel economy and power that your trying to use too. Why not run a pipe straight from the throttle body to the glove box, with a container where you can store dry ice, then when you close the lid a fan blows it all down... Youd gain -3HP!

hahah if you took the actual aircon cooler from under your dash and installed it inside your air box you could get your intake very very cold... However the power you waste running the compressor the whole time would make it completely pointless as for the garden blower... you idiot LOL Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
