You've got mail Sir. When Neil Switzer says he has goodies, I stop what I am doing and send an email. lol
We built an actual cold air intake that uses a sealed box to give you increased air flow and keep it cool with the intake scoops. HP is achieved in midrange RPM as well as quicker throttle response. Most all turbo cars will gain this with an upgraded intake. There is always the which is better stock or aftermarket...

Their are a couple videos. Its gonna be hard to here an intake from external clips from an exhaust. Inside the cabin you will here the turbos spool more and when you let off the gas. You will notice right away the throttle response is quicker.

vividracing [quote = ; 2918153 ] Nous avons construit une prise d'air froid réelle qui utilise une boîte scellée pour vous donner circulation d'air et garder au frais avec l'apport scoops . HP est réalisée dans les RPM de milieu de gamme ainsi que la réponse rapide des gaz. La plupart des voitures turbo tous gagneront ce avec une consommation améliorée . Il est toujours ce qui est mieux stock ou aftermarket ...

[quote=Serpentene;2909240]Most of the vehicles I experienced actually had a loss of power with open air intakes.
Another detriment is intaking hot air from the motor causing earlier heat soak and higher IAT. It sounds cool? You guys are joking right? Do you still attach poker playing cards on the spokes of your bicycles???quote]
Not joking at all... You dont think the sound of your car is part of the driving experience? What-- Do you drive around with ear plugs on???

For anyone that is interested in a better sound, I found that the drop in BMC filter did upgrade the sound a bit

When I tested our air intake we made for the 996TT back in the day, I actually tested the IAT and engine temp with a probe unit and found the difference to be minimal. This was the same intake that made almost 30 peak HP. So before I/we build a product, we definitely give it a full test. Read on... https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...w-project.html

In case you forgot,just read again my 60-130 time...Then your might turn to 
...
Intake change kept IAT stable and so there were power gains.
And I would please you once more to stop manipulating my cars performance.it would be better for you to post comments EXCEPT my car.Intake is from Fabspeed,not apr...
