the over sized hair dry as u call it is not even pulling 2amp so wont make any power loss,...

If its only pulling 2A, it wont move anywhere near enough air for the engine.

If it worked, dont you think more people would do it??

its only there to feed the cold air box with cold air when you at stuck in traffic, it brings the temps down by about 10c witch is all i want it to do, it was never intendid to be the engine supply just to help with cold air to the air filtted.

Ok, that looks too awesome to remain "custom". Whoever made it, I'm sure they now have a mold....can you enquire on a possible group buy? :D
