It doesn't work like that when air is under pressure and flowing...its to shorten the pipework lengths.

people keep mentioning this shortening hte pipework and yet those in the know say its not worth worrying about, also the difference between top and bottom pipeworks gonna be very little indeed.

mine was flipped so it looks neater and stopped rubbing the tyre on full lock, also could'nt keep the induction in the inner wing with the bigger cone so moving it was prefered to putting the new cone inside the engine bay.

not so many curves in the pipe work any more either.

So, are you going to hoover it to clean or power wash it?

10/10 for effort mate but that will stink when it melts/burns. Hope you are going to invest in magic trees to mask the smell inside when the smoke gets through the heaters...
