it doesn't really matter but all i can see is that with rai you are getting air from the engine bay and cai from the fender well. the fender well may be a little cooler

first of all your not going to see that much hp out of a intake, try to stay away from the metal intakes like bbk and mac. jlt, k&n, steeda are some of the better ones.


that being said i got a JLT ram air, it was alot cheaper and it looks sexy.

Oo yes.. and that in turn effects the air.... becuase the air spends soooo much time in there.

go heat up a straw... a metal one... then suck in some cold soda... tell me the temperature of the beverage when it hits your lips.... it'll feel refreshingly cold on your burnt lips.
