Will the Zabteck CAI (the one for inside the engine compartment that does not require drilling) fit inside the stock air filter box? I am toying with an idea using the box as a "cool box" by insulating it with some material used in militarty aircraft or even the "Ford Foil" as seen in the rear of the engine compartment, passenger side up towards the fire wall. I figure the box insulates a little, and if I can sheath it in some insulating material to drop the inside temp even more, it might be the ideal setup for my ST. It will look stock (except for the sheathing), no cutting, and I can even draw air through the intake area where the silencer sit (sat).
I'm guessing a nice cone filter breathes better than the rectangular filter...but I am only guessing.
