#341046 hey guys... anyone out there running an open pod setup with heatshield? care to show pix?

Any DIYs? I've been racking my brain on how to get one made nicely as I am running a rather large 6" Open pod over a BPI Velocity stack.

heres a pic of my intake which sits behind the headlight

to make things worse, my radiator fan is blowing hot air directly to my air filter as well as my air ram.

I was actually thinking of making an airbox with the filter and v-stack sitting inside the box with 2 hoses going down to the bumper behind the foglamps. but the curves in that area is making me a lil confused as to how to get all that to fit in there... heh

would really appreciate it if someone could post pix of their setups or a DIY guide (google didnt show any EG specific ones) so that i may steal ur ideas :D :D :D :D :D

thanks
