    Fender well intakes and true cold air intakes keep the temperatures down compared to an open cone. I believe w-body store or zzp, someone tested the different in intake air temps and open cones run about 70 degrees hotter than something that's sealed off away from the heat. Add that to your supercharger heat and you're creating knock, maybe to the point where it's not helping at all as far as performance but just to your ear!

    Been buying/making/fabricating intakes for probably longer than you've driven a car son. I guarantee if you put an aeroforce on a factory intake setup it has less knock than an open cone. I'll supply video evidence if you need it! You're inlet temps for an open cone roughly 144 degrees. Close it off and cut it in half! 144 degree intake air temps, nah I'll pass on that. Not to mention if an open cone filter setup was so great makes you wonder why they didn't put it on for a factory setup, let me help you it creates more knock which in turn takes away reliablity of your vehicle.

    Of course this is coming from the same guy that gives me **** everytime I post here and we already know you have attitude/personality problems. Why I don't post here often so I don't have to hear your stupid mouth.

    Our engines need MORE air, not necessarily cold air.

    Actually your engine needs a supercharger

    More hot air ='s more knock hands down can't even argue with that!
