Plastic or chrome does not matter...people will tell you the chromed one will get hot, thats untrue. Yes, thas the one I have, and the filter goes in the fenderwell where the air is cooler. Get it now!!</P>
Any metal will hold more heat than plastic, thats why they make the plastic intake. Roush installs their plastic version on their cars... As fast as the air is traveling through the pipe, I doubt it is warming the air much at all..</P>
