Wasn't the testing done on a GS stealthbox? I thought that sits relatively low

Where were these temps taken at? And you are saying that IAT's post intercooler don't mean anything?

It's also not made of stainless steel, which takes a little longer to heat up, but also takes longer to cool down (which occurs in a moving car as airflow moves across it as well as through it. Quote:

BUT BUT BUT, they said... you test with open hoods to make IATs lower!
AND, they said... you put your intake right near the HEAT! AND, they said... you made it out of metal that doesn't cool down! AND! they said you need a heat shield! ***GASP*** |

Yep. Here at MAP, we try to fabricate parts that hurt your vehicles performance as much as possible.

The box is not just a temperature thing... check out this quote from Cobb:

Yeah the box keeps hot engine bay air out (probably only really important at low speeds) but that isn't its only purpose. |

I realize I won't get much if any gains from an aftermarket intake, but I am a sound junkie. Which ones have a good sound to them?

Pretty much ALL the aftermarket intakes increase sound. What constitutes "good sound" is strictly a matter of personal taste, much like an exhaust. What I'd be concerned with is which intake is preferred by the top tuners for being the easiest to tune. So far, I think Grimmspeed has that spot all sown up...SC

I love the sound of my Cobb intake and the flutter of the Grimmspeed EBCS. I was tuned by Cobb/Surgeline locally and the tune/logs are great. But Clark says all intakes other than Grimmspeed have issues so I must have gotten lucky.

Hey, I'm just going off all the research I've done over the past year. In the end, I stayed with the stock intake and am staying at Stage 1 for the foreseeable future. Of course, YMMV ...SC |
