well, i just semi proved my theory...

i was out doing a few g-tech runs tonight: first run happily put away 165rwhp, then i did a few 1/4's and 0-60mph, then another horsepower run.

low and behold, with engine baking with heat following the numerous runs, the second power run pulled a measly 151rwhp.

i wish i had some temp data to back this up... but the correlation is pretty convincing. (at least i cant point to any other reasonable cause...)

glen, im actually thinking of running some 80mm pipe through the panel under the headlight, and mounting the airfilter outside the engine bay behind the front skirt... solves all the "how to make a box" problems.

i was then just thinking of heat wraping the rest of the intake piping. HPC is one thing, thick layers of insulation is another

cheers
