So the current design for the fresh air intakes on my Wedge leaves a little bit to be desired. Either I re-route it under the radiator and snake it behind the inlet grill or alternatively I was thinking of using a specially designed and highly expensive plastic air intake (vacuum cleaner plastic nozzle!) fastened 1/2" below the back of the front spoiler. Anyone got an photos of good alternative installations?

My (standard) intake is just below the windscreen and have a grill over it. Good enough for me as there is at least an intake and on later wedge sometimes there wasn't....
Even if you have an air intake, the system is not air tight under the dash and a lot is lost before it arrives at the air vents!

There are some threads on here of people that have done/tried other things.
This one of them www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=1237216 with some information/pictures

Gents, would very much appreciate a photo of engine bay with standard dual air intake. My current set-up was a pain in the a*se when I changed the plugs last week.
