Removing the existing resonator is the first step. Basically I replaced the
resonator with a short length of black PVC pipe fed back up to the headlight
box to keep any of the warmer engine air out. I had to heat the pipe to form
it into an oval shape to get it to fit. It is tight enough that it doesn't
move around. I have considered running a duct into the bottom or side of the
airbox, up from the R front spoiler intake where the disc brake intake would
be located, since I don't have a duct there for the brakes. Seems like that
might give a small ram air effect. Let us know what you do and how it works
out.

Subject: [a2-16v-list] Cold Air Intake
Date: Thu, 31 Jul 2003 13:19:27 -0400
After spending some time with a friend's 16V 'rocco, I would like to
attempt some sort of cold air intake for my 16V Motronic. I have the 4
round headlight setup on the front. Has anyone managed to run duct work on
an A2 with the 4 round setup to get a steady flow of outside air? If so,
any tips or, better yet, pictures of your setup?
Thanks,
Renard
