We will still get the dyno done for everyone's request since AFR is really important. As days goes by and when we get more information I will pass it on to everyone.
Thank you Joey for posting this. Yes, A/F ratio can be shown on a dyno. However, as one person said, an MSD Dashhawk can do that. The main thing is for people to see that gains with a ram air system are not quantifiable on dyno. My guess is that this intake will make a solid 8-10 hp more at speed, with perhaps even greater gains if the air is routed from the foglight/bumber intake area.

As I said in my first post in this thread, this is a well thought out and designed system. This system is accessing a high pressure area and will utilize the principle of ram air. The scoop size seems large enough to ensure more air being forced into the airbox. I really love the cf cover and duct/scoop.

One of the charms of this system is the simplicity. Nice cover, beautiful duct and scoop. Finally there is something beyond the realm of an aluminum tube with a cone filter. Finally, someone is using an enclosed airbox and ram air. Intake tempertures should be considerably cooler, especially at speed. Kudos to T1R for their chutzpah to think outside the box.

With comments like yours, it's no wonder some sponsors are losing enthusiasm in developing quality products.
lol dude stfu did u even read what and who i quoted!!!!?!?! i wasnt even talking about ajr at all. Jesus read what i f*cking quoted and then read my post damn!!! Once again read it the word dyno and ajr are nowhere in any of my posts. I was speaking mostly about the other intake systems out there like fujita sri's and the like. Lay off. This ajr intake system sounds cool and i like what i've seen so far.

My post was misunderstood. I was making a statement on the r&d of some of the other companies that have released some kind of intake for out cars. Some of them causing hesitation/bogging. That is something i'd think an decent r&d would have found and should have been addressed before releasing to the markets.

Yup, you are right on the dot regards this because it is exactly hard to get an accurate result for this. Unless we have some super future dyno and can give you the results while drivint, LoL who know if there will be such thing. The performance will surely differ if you have the bumper on with the fog still closed, or if the fogs are cut open for better airflow, or if you have a fog light there. In general you will get a great amount of power and you get a better reponse with the DBW, this is important to since the future will be DBW.

ps - if you want some super mass air flow just remove the whole fog portion or cut those babies up. hehe (talking about air galore!) If it is possible, maybe someone would do this.

Now the only question I have is...

the bottom portion of this intake...is it just open like that or is there a screen. Or something? What about water splashes?

Looks great BTW. Waiting for price and more info.

Also, if you drove through what I drove through this morning...horrible rain here you'll be asking this question also.

I'm just looking for answers.
