Lol yeah I know. I'm thinking of installing some vents on the hood, maybe that'll help lower the temperature and keep the inlet tube slightly cooler, although "not as hot" is probably the more appropriate term to use

I seriously doubt it would make any difference whatsoever

I can't feel a difference at 22C but wait until we get this warm spell tomorrow.

I can feel the difference at 30C+

I use a medically prescribed inhaler, basically a e-cig, but with prescription oil to ease the discomfort in my chest and lungs from inhaling toxins in Viet Nam. I would hold it between my legs but on a hard stop the thing would go flying to the floor under me feet.
SO
I cut a hole in my console, filled it with spray foam then cut the foam out. Painted the inside black, and now have a custom inhaler holder.

Nice...I'd look in to that if all of my batteries were the same type/size.

I wish they made the wrx look better so much performance potential. It doesn't cost more to make a car look better in most cases. Stop hiring retard artists to design your cars. if they made a 2 door wrx/brz look alike everyone would be all over it and Subaru would be rich as F*ck

That's true but its already a pretty well performing car as far as its price line goes. They would probably lose money if they put too much more into making it. It's basically high performance car for the price tag it has on it

Great way to put that blank to use.
