There was talk at one point about positive pressure being in the front corners of the fenders, well I did not realize that the last image I posted sucked from the well.

I took this in the junkyard today of a Durango, this may be an option for me to eliminate the opening in the rad support along with the round style filter...not sure yet if loosing the classic style filter is worth the positive fender pressure.

The only way to develop meaningful positive pressure is with a turbo or supercharger.

Nice design but your sucking hot engine compartment air with metal tubes absorbing engine compartment heat. Hook up a scan tool to see what the intake air temp is compared to a stock intake system parked next to it at the same time with the same ambient air temp.

I understand, not my setup just posted it for "ideas" I think I would prefer a boxed in setup.
