Thumbs up Running some 2.5 inch plastic ducting to my Rx-7 Fashion Cold air box.

Hey guys, just thought I'd let you know that it took me about 10 minutes to jack my car up and route some ducting from the passenger side front nose to my rx7 Fashion cold air box and there is a very noticeable difference in turbo response once the car gets going. Although, it is only a 2 inch duct...I do believe there is room for a bigger one. I will try and run a larger one soon as I get some free time and post my results. BTW, have any of you guys tried this??

Can you post some pics? Did you use the small scoop hole in the front fascia on the passenger side that is normally there for a second oil cooler? If so, how did you route the tubing? Did you use the stock air box?

I have a few questions. Where did you get the tubing? I can't find any that looks like it would work. Pics would be nice too.
thanks
