Initially, I was going to only access air from the cowl and seal off the factory cold air inlet. However, when I saw the Gruppe M design and spoke to Nasif who had installed one, I found out that the hole on the side of the Gruppe M has quite a bit of vacuum. He told me it would suck a piece of paper flush against the airbox.

So, with that information, I may initially try out the airbox with both the cowl induction and the factory cold air. I will just have to experiment. I will also try it with the factory cold air inlet sealed off to see if there are any differences with or without the cold air tube.
