This is the home of the masters(doityourselfers), my question is this: if i drill a hole on the passenger side front wheel well(where stock airbox and battery sit)And use a k&n air filter hooked up to a dryer vent, will it function like a aem or iceman cold air intake? i plan to use a 3-4 in diameter vent.

is the filter goin to stick out from the tire well

It would technically be a cold air intake since it would be sucking in colder air from the fender area. But the dryer vent pipe wouldn't be the most efficient to flow the air through, not to mention it's going to be ugly :P

yeah it'd work fine, i made my custom RAM AIR!!!!!!! intake with a peice of exhaust pipe. it goes around the battery and down to the bottom of the car...

no, the filter wont be sticking out of the engine bay. 91AccordLX, why would'nt the dryer vent pipe wouldn't be the most efficient to flow the air through?

i dont care if its ugly, its my car, and if i can make a cold air intake for $25, i'm gonna do it.

when i was making mine i was looking around for ---- to use and saw some old drying vents... but the ones i had were huge... like 6inch. i just used some old 3inch exhaust pipes that were laying around.

---- that, use PVC pipe, you'll do it with $15, I bought an AEM CAI used for $20, but one of my friend did his with pvc on a 91 Accord, it's been there for months, works fine. He had the pipes laying around in his garage, got a couple of elbows and did for like $5.00.
