[QUOTE="Bundy, post: 389426, member: 13152"] I did have very similar set up... Propex outlet to a Y-piece...one to the rock and roll kickboard, the other to a silicon pipe I threaded through the main metal underfloor pipe all the way to the front totem pole. I insulated the whole thing and did get an improved demist, but not alot of power...did improve if you open the window slightly when driving as it draws the air up the system! The downside was that the propex kicks out some seriously hot air and it made the whole lot smell of burning silicon...although it wasn't burning. Anyway, back to just the kickboard outlet now as I'm watercooled and have built a heater box for it and using a bilge fan it works a treat 8) An in-line bilge fan should help a propex, but get a good one as the fans seem to be glued onto the motor spindle and when they get warm the glue melts and the fan falls off and destroys itself!
