Default idea for an intake
so i just had a random idea...is it possible to maybe run a line from your AC into your intake so it shoots cold air in? and if so would it be sweet?

For the time and money it would take to modify your engine and AC system to make that work, you could buy several CAIs.

yeah plus i just remember that when the ac engages it will rob hp from the engine because it runs off the belt so it wouldnt really work all that well
