Dan, the back of the engine bay has a lot of hot air rising due to the header and exhaust as well as general engine bay heat. I would imagine that it would be a poor place indeed to draw air in from.

There really are only two ideal areas from which to access air that is in a high pressure are and that is the lower bumper and the wiper cowl area. One of the reasons I like the CRV airbox is the factory cold air inlet and the larger air volume capacity inside the airbox. Plus, the cover readily lends itself to connecting a duct/scoop to the cowl area.

Dan, I am almost there. I did a trial fit of Soxfan's MAF housing and it fits beautifully. Only thing I need to do is to finish up the duct connection.
