A lil DIY...
Well, got a lil time so I went to Home Depot and picked up some tubing...

After some test drive, I found the pipe soaked up a lot of heat from the engine bay. I'm assuming the air going to the intake is heated as well. I'll probably tuck the pipe to the fender well on the weekend.

thats not rice some top cars in the OPTION magazines shows them using the same style air duct hose... pluse its best to use the plastic type for less heat.
