[W126 Coupe] cold air induction on 560

[Gary]

can't remember where i heard this...its was probably one of those tv hot rod shows.  but they said that type of setup doesn't add a whole lot because its still hot air.  they stated you had to get an steady infusing of air outside the engine compartment.  i.e. below the grill, through the grill, wheel well.

  Do think there would be a power gain as in cold air induction if I took off my stock air cleaner that I have a K&N filter in now, and changed it to a stock 380 filter that only has the one large opening 3" the same size as the kits and they have the parts that you can buy to put one together that would sit right into large space on passenger side engine bay. It would use exiting evap hoses,so no building there and just use the 4" to 3" reduction mount,L-bend hose,1 short straight pipe, and then the cone shaped K&N cone filter. Instead of the two stock inlets that don't really connect to the outside that well. Any input before I spend the $100.00 to $150.00 for nothing just to give it a try ?
  Regards, Clay
