I thought about the possibility of water ingestion but I’d have to submerge the car pretty good for it to take in enough to cause a problem, IMO. The “pork chop” is missing from that side and I may leave it off or cut some holes in it to drain water.

The over the radiator intake would be awesome if you can make it happen. I don’t believe the stock duct for the alternator would flow enough for the engine but I could be wrong.

I think the best setup would be an air box behind the headlight.

I would think you would be right about the alternator inlet but I think the stock airbox is fed in a similar manner. Its been too long since I have had to pop the hood obviously haha. Direct fed through the headlight would be great if you don't need a high beam.

Any chance you can post a video of the exhaust sound? looks neat!
