Inlet air temp vs. vehicle speed
I had to make room in the engine compartment for my new Greddy oil catch can but the aFe airbox was taking up a lot of room. So, today I removed the air box and left the intake tube and the filter. I still have to find a way to limit the movement of the filter.
I was was curious as to whether I lost the cold air intake effect from the removal of the aFe airbox. The next two links are video captures of inlet air temp vs. vehicle speed. First video is at surface street speeds and the second video is at freeway speeds. You can see that inlet air temp does in fact drop once outside air comes through the grill and into the filter. Outside air temp was 67 degrees F. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LWR4fo5z3Y http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_T4lC4OU05Q
