with as you have a direct flow of air feeding it all the time, or you could put it right behind a morrette headlight if you have them..

Just fitted mine, no flat spots without it but get heat soak which is crap - with it its ok up untill 3500rpm then it takes off (alot of torque, good off the line) So ive decided to try and run two cold feeds, one from my morette and the other from the lower grill then join the two together right by the filter so the filter can take in as much cold air as it needs (not just restricted to one intake)
Some people might think im stupid  but thought id try it anyway

No sorry just sits where a normal induction kit is then a pipe running down to the funnel in the morrette that i made. Still yet to link pipes together etc as ive had no time but plan on making it neat so its not noticable.

I have a Viper on my X16XE without the feed. its tucked away in near the wing, away from the engine block.
The problem is finding room to route a cold air feed with the X16 as the bay is so cramped.

I know how you feel as ive have one too  most packed engine bay ive seen 
There is a small route right down to where the lower grill is, squeeze through a small hole right down next to the radiator.

Morrettes soon, going to have the feed coming from a removed main beam lamp

Just trying to get the right size funnel is a bitch.
