There was someone who attended the SE VTR who had a truly nice cool air
intake complete with a nicely machined air box. I don't recall the
owner's name, but wondered if anyone on the list remembered this car and
the details.
I've never seen on of Richard Good's systems so it could have been his,
but I just don't know.

I have seen a TR6 in the shop that had the typical air box with the two
cone
air intakes. Then there was two flex hoses (like the ones for the vent
system) leading to a bracket ( that looks like the gasket that is used
between the header and the dual exhaust flange) The flex hoses were
threaded
through the bracket and then they stopped. The bracket was attached
above
the carbon canister so that the air would be rammed down the pipes at
speed.
Sorry about the awful description. This is where a picture is worth a
thousand words! Would this be original or someone's personal invention.
