I mean enclose it and bring in a colder air charge, i bet he could pull a few more horses if he did.
350whp on FWD BTW.

Its a good thing those cai make sooooo much extra power by sucking in cooler air. Do ineed to explain to you what a turbo does to incoming air? You should know better

BTW, did you miss the part of a gt2871r on a giac ko3 chip? Think he dyno'd 375whp with w/m.

I didn't SAY cold air intake cincy, just to isolate the air filter from heat soaking, its only good for a couple of horse power but every little bit counts in a race.
I did notice that you said he dyno'ed 350 on k03 software which is pretty impressive, just shows you how much tuning can be done manually rather than have someone else"tune" for you.

^^^^^^^^^^HA! I wouldn't believe that even if they showed me the dyno print out. Maybe with an FMIC but not with a cold air intake, you're more likely to suck up some water and blow your engine than gain that much HP.

Heatsoak = intercooler you noob. Also a cai does the same thing, and yet still no more hp to be made. Turbo + compression of the air = too hot regaurdless of incoming temps.

Are you sure the A3's in question are not 3.2's? That would make a whole hell of a lot more sense

Really? Not even acouple of HP? Well i guess i am a noob. Well whatever doesn't matter anyway, won't hurt his engine either way.
