Air intake on 16v

[ats at longcoeur.com (Patrick Bureau)]

The collector is used with a metallic pipe that leads to the exhaust pipes
and has a heat collector there, simple take all those apart and do your mod.
The heat collector is to bring in warmer air into the intake for them
freezing county's and country's (I.e.: Canada) for start up in Canada.

hEY Y'ALL,
Wuz up?  I was just gonna do a little mod on my air intake by putting the
intake in front of the rad behind the front grille but I suddenly realized
that it is different than my 8v.  the big hose coming out of the airbox goes
to a collector box thingy that meets up with another hose coming off the
exhaust manifold....can anybody tell me what thats for?  and also is there
any sense in changing the position of the air intake to maximize airflow?
or is it set up optimally as it is?  my 8v air intake was lower than this
and exposed to the elements...but this one seems different...any comments?
