Re: home made ram air

[Rich Deede <rdeed@UDel.Edu>]

Hey Tony, I have been running that exact same 3" aluminum dryer tubing on
both my sciroccos for over close to 2 years now and have nver had any
problems. All I do is fasten it on to the airbox and screw it in to the
bottom of the front air dam and Im done, no problems with the wires. Only
problem is on some steep driveways I'll smoosh the dryer tubing a bit. HTH
