you can always drill your stock airbox

I cant see how youre car can get heatsoaked whiles driving if you are sitting in traffic yes but not constant driving.

Ya, that sounds like heat soak. A FMIC does help and I'm sure a cold air intake would help aswell, but being a turbo engine they do generate alot of heat. Water/meth would probably work best to combat this.

Water/meth will sort it out but maybe it's a bit extreame for a simple fix.

the standard IC is pretty crap yes, but after 15 od years of sucking in lint from the standard filter, you'll start getting a bit restrictive aswel. ask anyone who drove one of these new and they'll tell you the standard crap aint all that bad.

so you you want to try and fix the problem without moding the car simply strip the standard IC open it up(without killing the seals) and give it a clean, that should do the trick although it wont hurt isolating the air filter.

Reamember, 80% of heat soak is due to poor mantenance and can be fixed by a bit of TLC and the other 20% due to mods and you'd have to mod some more to fix this.

I disagree the standard IC is crap It will instantly suffer from heat soak after a one long boost run and doesn’t shed heat vey well.

Also the item is very restrictive with a large loss across the core , Even cleaning the item wont help much.

It has been test but AutoSpeed

Also please note the flow of an aftermarket unit in the last graph, I would recommended a FMIC and CAI. W\M can come after a turbo upgrade

want to go W/M too. seems like a very good mod from what I've heard. but yeah, like PFB said. IC CAI and then turbo and W/M.
