[urq] 1983 URQ cold air intake filter

[James]

The Coupe GT (on the european models at least) uses the plastic 
airfilter box. From the lower inboard edge of that, an intake duct is 
routed under the chassis rail, back up inside the cavity between the 
chassis rail and the fender, this goes up basically as far as it will 
go, and then doubles back into a plastic intake duct. It would certainly 
get you into cold air. However, it's an awful long and restrictive pipe 
run. The GT runs much better without it.........

You can see it here :

I'd agree with mike schowengerdt on his advice............. Maybe 
consider a more effecient intercooler?
