CAI on a WRX - retaining fog lights
Just working out my plans for the year and a decent intake is ceratinly one of the mods planned to go with the decat and then remap.
The one thing that did cross my mind is that on most CAI installs I've seen is that they've been mounted behind the fog lamp cover and often the cover is removed and replaced with a duct, or is drilled to let more air in.
Now I have a MY05 WRX and as such I'd quite like to keep my fog lights because I quite like them. Will this effect the airflow getting to the filter or is there some other methods I could use to direct more air to the filter.

I've spoken to some of my technical advisors and they recommended that with my plans the standard airbox and a panel filter were more than adequate, so I've given up with a CAI for the moment.
