i have a vx II s and i have just got some intake piping from a local auto shop and i am just trying to find a good place to have the piping where
it's not too visible but still effective. i was thinking from the fog lamp space in the bumper where i just have a cap in atm, but i can't find a good direct
route to the airbox with that. anyone know if there is any safe places to cut out near the airbox (not any chassis rails) or anyone who has done the same thing before
and knows a good way to go about this just let me know, any ideas or problems you found. just anything to give me an idea of how to go about this.
cheers, pickle

Look in the "How To" section mate. There's a good write up on a CAI

May I ask why you want to hide it?

not too sure if some police will agree with me having it on my car. not 100% sure on if it's legal or where it's legal to have it, so just incase

I'd personally spend the money on a mace cai that way it looks good sounds good and cops can't do anything
