Pictures of custom air duct we built This isn't LS1 related but I thought you guys would enjoy the pictures.
We built a custom air box behind the passenger side bumper cover and then routed it all the way to the compressor housing. Piping we used are 4" reduced to 3". As some of you know, rotaries get hot!!! This duct should pull in air closer to ambient temp, in return will make the turbo more efficient. Anyways, enjoy boys. I just wanted to show some of our skills

Now does that air duct cause restriction? Obviously it would promote cooler outside air...I was thinking of somekind of air pipe as well but I was thinking of cuting it short of the turbo to allow cool air plus extra engine bay air if the turbo needs it. But I have no idea what would work the best...
