TTDA question >>
Is it possible to use the TTDA w/o running the 2 hoses down to the bumper/wheel well? That is, the box breathes through the 2 holes from the air in the engine compartment above the DS wheel well.
I have my stock airbox cut on that side and a K&N panel filter. This combo works well and the air in that region seems cool even after spirited drives.
Was hoping a TTDA style design with the same source air region would help breathing up top in the RPM range?
Or is there no huge benefit w/o actually running the 2 hoses down compared to my current ghetto airbox/k&n panel setup?
Tx.

Most of the benefits>>>>
of the TTDA are in the device itself. The cold feeds help pressurize the TTDA, which increases airflow, but the answer is yes, you can run without the hoses. I think Steve said it was 80% efficient without the hoses....

oh, i know as i have the hoses routed on my car>>>>
but the question was can you run it without the hoses...and the answer is yes. The TTDA still adds a lot of performance without the feeds....most want the extra 20% or so of efficiency....not arguing, just answering...

2 reasons >>>
(1) I dont like the idea of hoses down low ... hate having the thought of water being s*cked in.
(2) Some people have had to cut the wheel well and I dont want to cut and drill any sheet metal.
