Intake question

Usually people get an intake that places it behind their battery or into that fenderwell.` Has anyone shifted their battery 90 degrees, and also moved their intake 45 degrees and placed it facing into the radiator next to the battery? This might mean cutting/splicing a few wires, but I would think that the air would be better, cooler and actually flowing more into the intake?

Also, has anyone tried putting their MAF before the midpipe?

Would this affect anything?

( just brainstorming)

thanks

more effective method rather than trying to get hot air through the radiator

you should put a fine screen in front of the openning to block big debris from entering the hole.
