If you do a sheet metal heat shield- make sure you put some kind of insulation on it- metal conducts heat far better than plastic.

very true...however will it really be a problem since all its doing is keeping the engine heat away?

Personally, if you want a cheap "cold air box" take your stock box and gut it out. It may not be as good as a $250 but it is alot better then hai. On one of the scans we did on my car with a gutted stock airbox, driving around town and sitting at stoplights it got to 20 degrees over outside air temp and on the highway it was 7 degrees. Now all of this was done on a 80 degree day so I do not know what it would be like on a 100 degree day but still not that bad for free.

here some that i was looking at when i first got my car, they can be expanded into a tube to go down behind the foglight, of course youd still need to block off the engine heat

intake

filter

ram air
http://www.weapon-r.com/index.php?ac...at=38&trim=749

heatshields
http://www.weapon-r.com/index.php?ac...at=39&trim=749

not sure how well the heatshield would work, if it would work at all but these look like theyre your best bet for making a ram air behind the fogs, as long as you can make a heatshield
