You will see an approximate 1% Dyno'd increase per 10 degrees you lower the IAT's going into the manifold...

With that being said lowering the ambient air by 20 degree's is not the same, as the supercharger heats the air to such a high degree that an intercooler is needed to cool it before it enters the intake manifold. Even if the air was 40 degrees lower at the filters, that isn't going to make the same difference after the supercharger and where it counts, which is at the intake manifold.. It's like shooting a cold cup of water through the atmosphere of the sun in order to cool jupiter off better. The sun is so ******* hot that the cold dissipates before it even hits jupiter and is only a very marginally lower temperature than if you were to throw lukewarm water at jupiter through the sun's atmosphere.

If you want cooler IAT's. Get a bigger heat exchanger, install a meth kit after the supercharger but before the intercooler (for temp sensor / ecu purposes) THAT will make a considerable difference.

But like I said. "it doesn't hurt to have the coldest possible air intake"... But I think you guys are too heavy set on the actual "location of the filters" and thinking that has more to do with power gains that it actually does...

Maybe after hours straight of racing at the track. It might pay off, because the engine is sooo hot that you can take fewer and shorter breaks in between runs... But I don't do that ****. So I don't care about that.

Plus, my devil horns setup, works... Amazingly and surprisingly well, and I am only improving upon it when my 2' 90 mandrel bent 2.5 ich pipes come in, which I will fabricate into some BEAST devil horns. Then, I will isolate the filters to only recieve air from that source.

You guys are hellbent on disqualifying my idea. No one ever said I was done. I'm doing my "own" **** here while saving as much money as possible in the process. You can naysay all you want but someday I'm gonna have dyno numbers and i will NEVER buy a needswings intake... But don't get me wrong. The needswings intake is the only part I know of that they make, that I think is insanely overprice gouged due to the lack of market/ cornering the market with the silicone Y coupler and lack of competition.

It's understandable for sure, from a business profit perspective. But I for one. Can get around that with very little performance loss... As far as more complicated and finely tuned upgrades go though, such as pulleys, oil catch can, tunes, exhaust, LSD... Yes. I will pay the price for those, not only because I can't do it myself but because They are so specialized and fairly priced....

Needswings is a great company. Not ragging on them fanboys... Calm down. I just refuse to jump on this particular bandwagon. Yall can believe what you want though about the actual IAT increases... I even have this idea where you could modify a snow plow into a huge air trap which forces it directly into 12 air filters all merged into one pipe, that way you get maximum super duper magnum cold air intake.

Like a boss. Let me know if you want me to draw it up for yas.
