This test was made with the 3" brand X down pipe #1 if you use a larger pipe to your turbo your turbo does not have to work as hard.
#2 if the air is cooler intering your turbo, then it will be cooler leaving the turbo. then your inter cooler will be cooler.
just made some temp. test not complete but will share what i have.
at 45mph intake air in the hole at the fenderwell 82*
on the intake pipe just behind the filter 97*
on the top of the turbo 251*
on the intake manifold 109*
stoped open the hood engine running and read again.
the fenderwell 104* pipe behind the filter 115*
top of turbo 277*
on the intake manifold 137*
will make some more test and with the factory air box and factory down hose.

I believe your intake's effectiveness comes from the ram air effect (taking from the foglights) moreso than the cooler air aspect of it...


Im totally w/ Tommy on the intercooler issue. Have you seen teh SRT's? Its huge?!
