well there both inside the cowl? arnt they i have mine go inside the driver side and it uses the stock air box and i really dont think i hear it at all

 

Well that spectre one up there is an outside the cowl, you can see where the filter goes where it bows out a little bit. And yeah same here. I have mine to the airbox and I don't hear anything

 

yeah thats what I though, Really want to do the other intake were the filter is in the cown and you take the air box out but i really dont wanna chance any water getting in my engine even tho i dont think it would really happen!

 

It's sitting inside the cowl, you can kinda see the clamp for it through the hole in the firewall. I screwed up where i cut the hole, it's too far to the right so when i turned the wipers on they shoved the filter back, causing the flex tube to get punctured on the sharp edges i left. So i have to replace the flex tube now and find a way to grind the edges down and cover them.

@Grandlich, they won't get water in them from normal rain or whatever, the drains for the cowl are efficient enough to drain all the water before that happens... If they are not clogged. Also this is why you DO NOT want the filter directly below the cowl opening, not that it's even possible to have it there.

 

Are the drains just in the bottom, I think ima do it just wanna make sure my drains arnt all clogged. that probably wouldnt be good ahaha

 

I'm not sure where they are, i just took a garden hose on full and made sure the cowl didn't flood.

 

good idea ill try that thanks!

 

Sounds fn amazing!

 

It's been raining like Hell and I haven't had an issue with water either at start up in the morning after full nights of hard rain (caused flooding after two days. I was driving past cars with water up to their seats... Talk about pissed off motorists. Emergency teams were there. Made it through 5 minutes before they closed the road) or driving in pouring rain. It is important to cut the hole above the floor of the cowl though so that there is a lip underneath. If you cut even with the floor you may have an issue as gravity will take its toll and all that water will flow towards your valves.

 

Proof, video of my rig. Excuse my best bud's mouth.

 

okay i get what your saying cut the hole in the engine bay wall above the foolr of the cowl. makes sence.

 

One thing to think about: if you want a cowl intake and you have some fab skill, look around for a canister filter that can be enclosed. Then u can make one like spectre for much cheaper. I was too lazy but I'm sure if someone finds a suitable filter it would catch on. The room that's freed up by getting rid of the airbox is amazing. I put in an air horn and will be doing dual batteries shortly. Prob still have a bit of room left over.

 

I'm thinking about dual cowl induction...a hose going to each side?

 

Any reason? As long as your hose is 3" you should be getting enough air.

 

Honestly i see no point, if they both go into the Cowl. Unless you modify the cowl grille, the system will draw the same amount of air since the mesh over the grille opening limits the airflow.
