Nice. I’ll have to hear a clip of the eventuri ones. That carbon looks good in the engine bay. I heard some guys don’t like the intakes that sit in the engine bay as it can get super hot, asking sincerely has there been any proven dyno gains for these intakes? |
Ya it's sexy. Honestly didn't buy it for numbers as i have no other mods that would actually give an intake any gains. They do have data that shows a significant amount of increases flow and provide some solid metal heat shields with heat reflective tape. Honestly I'd be more worried about silicone absorbing more heat that Carbon fiber by the nature of the material.
Either way our engines are massive heat soaks and not much can be done to avoid that. I would be curious to see someone measure inlet temps before and after some of these aftermarket set ups
