This Saturday I am having a custom cold air intake and heat shield made for my S/C VX. I went to a custom speed shop last week and discussed what I wanted done. The shop is going fabricate the cold air intake out of mandrel bent aluminum tubing. The intake with filter will cost $189 and $30 for the shield. We are going to take most of the bends out of the intake and use an inline cone filter the has an additional intake tube coming out of the front of the filter and routed into the air box hole on the inside of the left fender. The shield will go around the filter so we should be able to cut down on the amount of heated air we are pulling through the engine compartment into the S/C. I will post pictures of the completed intake and shield when it is done. I just thought that if this works pretty well for our S/C VX's then some others would like to have one made for their's also. $219 for a custom system that works seemed like a good deal to me. I'll let you know how it works.
