WAI or RAI

Hello everyone,

I was just reading Taylor95's thread about his WAI ideas and if brought a question to mind but I didn't want to hijack his thread so here I am.

I have seen this YT video on an air box mod...



but I had an idea on modding that mod to create a WAI.

It looks like they leave the air box open to the headlight area still allowing cold air into the box but at a higher volume. My idea is to re-seal the headlight opening and the opening in the air box. Then create a new opening on the engine side of the box and install some kind of ducting (pvc elbow, dryer vent, etc) pointed towards the exhaust manifold to draw in warm air.

Any thoughts?


The other thing saw (and don't think has any FE benefit) is in this video...



It's a pretty clean setup, but I have no idea what it would do for FE. Probably nothing. Any other thoughts on this?
