Basically, copying this guy...



Like all things on the internet, never posted if the CAI helped or not with IATs.

It'll have to make more than 9# of boost at 90mph before you'll see any opti tears

I mean, it only makes 10psi max, and it does that usually well before 90mph

So, that aside, consensus is this little mod couldn't hurt correct?

I don't think so. Get some good baseline data logs, coolant temp, ambient air temp, iat at full boost @ specific rpm, and what psi full boost is (and I know ain't 10# you sandbagger) with the setup now and after the mod and see what the results are.

That is my plan, gonna see if I can fab something up quick in steel, then switch to aluminum if it works well.

(And dead serious, it went what it did on 10#)

Good plan. Can't wait to see it at the shootout. Love seeing stock headed cars getting good results. Gives me hope for mine (non ported heads now but on the hunt for le2's in the future). You planning on turning up the wick soon?

mine is reversed from your set-up, but i think the exact same thing could be done.
