[QUOTE="lightning25, post: 8751048, member: 54303"] I currently have the JLP CAI and decided i wanted to block out the hot air from the engine. so i installed another "ram air" tube from the fender wall out to the front of the bumper, i also made a metal plate to go on top of the intake box. i insulated the entire box with dynomat as it can help to reduce a lot of heat. the install went great, with a few minor issues installing. While test driving after wards to see the rewards of the intake temps (and they do stay low to the ambient air for the most part), i did notice a reduction in blower whine! so i datalogged, here are the results..... this test is with the metal intake plate on (notice the a/f while i'm at open loop) [ATTACH=full]1104766[/ATTACH] this test is with the metal plate off (and a very noticeable increase in blower whine - and again notice the a/f at open loop) [ATTACH=full]1104767[/ATTACH] this last test is just a double check with the intake plate on to ensure the results are accurate (again notice the a/f) [ATTACH=full]1104768[/ATTACH] i need some advice. obviously this must be due to the plate covering the intake from the motor and the motor isn't getting enough air, even with two 3" pipes going out to the front bumper. i have noticed a drop in intake temps while driving, but obviously at the cost of the blower whine and the a/f. should i just take off the plate and deal with the temps or get re-tuned?? has anyone else tried to lower intake temps successfully??
