I recently gathered some data from my test car with the stock arrangement and a couple of cold air intake systems. I gathered this on the dyno as well as in field testing with my Race-Technology DL2 set up.

I did this to see if there was room for improvemnent with the aftermarket systems on a stock engine that would support another truly developed component.

We require cold air systems to be utilized ewith our non stock engines, especially the big bore 3.2>3.6 enginesa s their need for air is greatly increased.

I did find that on a Dyno the effects of the intake are more than they are in field testing and thats probably due to the better air flow of the aftermarket units while the car is static on the dyno vs. at speed in the car.
