Default Standard Air box with Front Mount.....

Hi all, im looking to fit a front mounted intercooler but i would like to keep my standard Air box. Is this impossible? Ive researched this and found most people have to chance, due to the pipe work.

My car is a v1 Classic.

Cheers

The pipe goes through the wing where the airbox is, you could maybe keep the airbox if you routed both pipes under the engine or something.

It has been done! A dutch forum member has done it on his car! Flip the intercooler and use 60mm piping. Cut the bulge from the airbox and replace with a piece of plexiglass or something else. I'm going to do something similar on my own car.
