I’m not saying larger air boxes reduce low-end power. What I’m saying is the larger air boxes are more susceptible to heat which contributes to heat soak/ increased IAT (we know what that does). I’m sure the SL55 setup will provide gains but how much (dyno here I come)? It does something because my track numbers were consistent all three runs with it. I launched the same, ran in the same lane, waited between runs about the same amount of time. As you can see my numbers became progressively worse (still decent). Why For now I’m going to say what looks obvious, larger heating area helped contribute to heat soak/ increased IAT. My observation is no different from a butt dyno .
