Is this possiable? can you find generic piping and plumb it out of the compartment?

OR (2) I was thinking of making a plastic cover to cover the top of the standard EVO setup and I could more or less seal the box so that it only draw air from outside.

If the install was not such a Pain in the A** I would replace the stock box.
Just thinking


1. EVO intakes do not draw air from the engine compartment.

2. EVO intakes come with a compartment panel that the filter sets in that is completely sealed off for the engine compartment.

Where did you get your EVO intake, second hand? If you would have bought it from a distributor you would see the panel and instructions for installation. http://jbkperformance.com/evolution_motorsports/evolution_motorsports_high_flow_intake/g-53034.aspx
