I have some ideas after looking over the champion setups. Need to go out in the garage
Take out the under hood cowl seal and cover
Take out the 2x2 rubber plug on the cowl divider
Take out the black accordion connectors to the stock air cleaner.
Leave the silver ducts
Post test butt dyno says yes. Logs look good but it pulls smooth thru 2nd and 3rd gears from butt dyno impressions

Thread jack = I know Terry. I lived in bay area 7 years in late 90s / early 2000s. I bought / ordered a pair of racing Recaros from him for one of my 951s/944 Turbos. That was prob. 2001/2. I remember when I went to go pick them up he had one of those 60s/70s super multi window VW busses in his shop. A super mint one. Then years later I saw him I think at least twice manning a Recaro display at SEMA. And maybe they had Hella in that same display seems like I might remember?
It is so cool how so many people keep messing with these low production and now pretty damn old RS6s. Kind of makes me feel lame. I just drive mine lol. And its early VIN 85kish mi.s, all stock except RS4 wheels, just maintained and OEM shock system recall-replaced just before I got it couple years ago from Porsche Club Racing friend / orig. owner who just used it as daily.
Whenever I think about messing with it I just come on here and read around a little and invariably walk away thinking... ain't broke don't fix it lol
Did you forget your meds again?!?Originally Posted by DHall1

Need more test subjects.

Is this how you run normally? Does this help with power, wouldn't you be sucking more engine heat in without the black accordion connectors?
The ducts are still there to direct some air to the box...but yes some air is pulled from under hood. Thus the reason to open up the cowl area.
This is the test. It feels good so far and only run this in cool weather. I have a plan for hot weather
I will try it next week when they finish installing my new transmission.
