[QUOTE="Classic_Engr, post: 10461415, member: 119456"] You are right on the money! I followed that Jannety Racing test closely and the intake tube material had no impact on the results. Like you said, the intake air is moving too fast at that point to readily absorb any transferred heat. What's more, I was at SEMA and learned that AEM uses a ceramic flake in their powdercoating to reduce heat transfer even further, so the aluminum vs. plastic tube argument has no credence. BTW, the intake with the highest HP gain in that Camaro test used a dryflow filter from AEM, so I think this kit is good to go. What is important? The overall design and length of the system, where it draws air from, the location of the MAF and IAT sensors (if separate), and the capacity of the air filter. That said, this looks like one of the better systems out there. However, Ford's stock intake is already a decent design, so I'd bet your lucky to see a 10HP gain with this intake--in stock tune. Now, if you do a little tuning and... I also think that's AEM's synthetic "dryflow" filter, so no oil = easy to wash and re-use. I can't wait to see this in person.:banana: [/QUOTE]
