Default Re-routing A/C lines

I just had a thought when I was walking to my car earlier in this humid day. Would it benefit my car any if I routed my A/C lines to my intake so that colder air would be going into my engine instead of this suffocating hot air?

Probably less than the performance loss from turning it on...
I assume you mean AC vents, not lines.

Hmm...with a TT, intercooler water sprayer and cold AC blowing on the IC, that might create a nicely chilled IC. "Cool" idea, Mantis
