intresting note on cool air intakes

the pipe travels through the engine compartment and the air is heated before it reaches the intake manifold not as much as the stock intake or a short ram but enough to make it a consideration.

before i realized this i purchased a chromed cold air. it looks cool but chrome heats up real easy and robs power.

AEM uses a coating that reduces the amount of heat transfered to the air going into the intake manifold hence more power.
