Ironically - was test fitting pipes from Ebay and bought one.. then a week later the other side. Temps were lower by 10-15 degrees running the drivers side cone and OEM setup on the passenger side.. (N/A Crossfire). About all I can figure is the cone was the primary air flow and kept that side of the air box from heat soaking - keeping temps down.
Preaching to the converted - but I'm liking this snout MM. The more velocity pressure (speed of air) you can ram into these horns the better. Velocity pressure is energy and will ultimately end up as more boost if you can get it in there. The funnelling effect adds to this effort. The more funnelling the better.....hey
Obviously no sig. impact on engine/oil temps.
