FE Mod ideas

Air intake -

Connecting an air duct from the vehicle interior to the inlet of the air filter box.

- takes advantage of solar heating of the interior on a cold, sunny winter day
- continues to supply preheated air (for human comfort) to the engine after warm up.
- Reduces wild temperature swings of intake air during stop-and-go driving on a hot summer day.

Water injection -

Capturing air conditioner condensation and feeding it to the air intake above the throttle, through something like a bicycle pump inflation needle.
