You need a closed box CAI. Cover the box in gold HVac tape and run the ducting to the CAI box. I had heat soaking issues with my infiniti Q50. I did something similar but ran the ducting to the front grill and the heat soaking vanished. It gets hot where im at in the states so i was surprised it worked so well.
since the fog delete air ducts were installed along with the coolant hose heat wrapped i have nticed a big difference in now there is what feels like no drop in perfoamance onn those hot days
The thrumpets looks good. Maybe want them also, but then for the looks. My self run the RS inlets. Max 20⁰C lower temp. But is have then both direct to the throttle body. But really works. Easy to check just run with and without the supply on a warm Day. And Read out your MAP sensor with a OBD2 program. My tuner said that the heat comming from the radiator is filling the engine bay with heat. This "cable" is a return coolant from you engine block back to reservoir.
if those other vents that go in the front grill were shaper into the corners, less round and flowed the grill suround beter i would definetly of gone for them but the issue i also have is they make the front grill look narrow and didnt want to loose the wider looking grill. But you culd run more ducts from behind the grill where air can get in. I do feel this mod has helped get air into the engine bay, epescially into the air intake as the car doesnt seem to be struggling as much as it did before. You could tell the heat slowed it down. Not i dont see much difference from cold to hot engine
Due to the front bumper being smoothed. But checked with other owners a out its location who also run the plate there and no issues with it there as plenty of air still gets to radiator and doesn't effect performance
This hast to be the best looking st150 engine bay. super clean
@@jessethomas6971 thanks, have to see what has happened to it in my recent videos
@@DriveWithAndy will check them out
Andy. Just buy one of those OBD displays. You'll be able to see what is the temperature being detected into the intake.
So you did it!

Good work Andy 👍🏻
Thanks 👍🙂
does anyone know how to replace the fog light cables?
Nice mod🤩.. but i dont understand why the numberplate is sitting in the grill then...

Should have plumbed the air hose to the throttle body then had the cone hanging out the front.
Well that's one way to have it
