Hmmmm,
	But what about the hot/air thing.  I think I will stick with my
own design.  Up here, we plop in a K&N filter, then drill holes in the
airbox on the fender side of the box away from the engine.  This (in
theory) brings in cool air and it sounds really nice too.
	In my friends Jetta it made a big difference in High RPM power.
Now it bounced off the rev limiter with ease.  NOt more power necessarily,
just a broader power curve.  Makes for a much funner car though.  On my
friends 4kq, without holes, it pulled a "little?" better up high and Fuel
economy increased.  Not real sure about the power.   With the holes, it
definately pulled better above 5k rpm.  And what a SWEET sound.  L8R
