the myth of cold air intake...

[why?]

and smooth airflow is overrated, if not flat out a negative. That is why porting and polishing is left to large high hp engines.

It wouldn't surprise me if drop in filters did not make that much of a difference on near stock cars. Especially near stock hyper cars. It was interesting they didn't even try a car that was turboed from a n/a base.

I'm in 100% agreement with Garm. Someone gave them a premise, and they did everything they could to prove that right.

That is the only way anyone could mount anything aftermarket for an air intake in the back of an engine bay with a straight face.
