I highly recommend this mod for ayone in CA. Thanks
this made your sri cooler to the touch?

what kind of extension did you use? i thought that intakes were tuned for the cars and already had the best gains they could get with what they had to work with.

also....you can wrap the intake in the exhaut heat shield wrap if you are that concerned with it sucking in hot air. (worked great for me)
