Hi!

Does anyone have done some testing in order to get some real numbers of the effectiveness of the Pod air filters like HKS, Ram Air, which get hot air from the bonnet v/s the Standard air box with some upgrade like a cold air induction?

Regards from Chile

At 40mph there isn't much hot air under the bonnet.

Hi Fredy

I don't know many cars over 350bhp with a standard airbox

Standard box is good for cold air and is fairly efficient UP TO A POINT.

After that it will start to hold you back.

Cheers
Rich
