Not so much that it'll free up on any HP, but it'll help you maintain the power you feel before the engine is heat soaked.

+1. It'll lower your Inlet Air Temps so your engine isbreathing in cooler air to make power with.

Yes indeed! The cooler temps will help him maintain more consistent peak power. That IMO is just as important as trying to make an extra 5hp (which won't do much good if heat robs what you gain). So an aftermarket HE is a great move IMO!!
