    OK so the temp from the intake is lower by 2 degree's, then what? you get 1/16 a hp? how much is this gunna cost, $300?

    I picked up my carbonio for $80 and i still think it's worth every penny to just have the "pshhhh" noise (i wouldn't pay more than that for it)!

    Re: Status of AEM intake?

    What's the point of sucking in cold air? Any air sucked in (hot or cold) is going to be compressed through the turbo (aka it's gonna get really hot anyway) then run back through the intercooler then to the manifold. You'll see much more significant gains if you find a cooling method AFTER the turbo (aka intercooler upgrade) rather than finding a way off sucking in cold air that will become hot anyway.

    I have hookups!

    Either way, I wouldn't spend more than $100 on one no matter how much "lower" the intake temps were...
