My only argument is that the way the down pipe routes the intake is pretty close and the heat transfer is a problem we think, I just got a blanket and wrap for the down pipe, I only have these problems at autox and drift and traffic on hot days (low speed, very little air flow) I may also have a fan issue. Because freeway, drag, roll race no overheat issues what so ever.

That being said, I love it and so does everyone who sees it I'm only at 280 whp on 93 and ready to go to e85
