I strongly believe that we don't want to make anymore bends of air flow than already exist in the system, nor do we want to make anymore air flow bends than necessary, so first things first is that the front of the filter, the unopened end should face where the air is coming from, like my drawing on the last post with all the pictures. That way air is sucked right in. I really think that the comptech box for the unknown acura is the best one yet.


That way our MAF Housing can be incorporated!!



That's what I did with my airbox. Dremeled out the interior and fiberglassed it for a DAMN smooth flow. Now we have to figure out a box to fit a filter in!
Dan, would it be possible to section out the area on our airboxes that angles downward and then either fiberglass or use cf to make the box retangular?

I wonder if we would then have enough space for a larger filter? It is important to have enough area inside the box for maximum airflow.

You make a great point about keeping bends to a minimum. I like your drawing. The straighter the better. We would need to find a material that would not flex or bend, but rather maintain its rigidity. Something like the plastic found on the Icebox would be ideal.
