With all this intake talk about IAT's ... I decided to be silly... I put
Synergy Motorsports knowledge to a test ( Rick Hollenback is a huge wealth of knowledge, you should test him and you'll know why buying from him is worth it)...
I did back to back driving logs ( only 30 minutes each ) should have done longer and I may just for shits and giggles one day.
Lowering IAT’s was the “end game”
1. Using his whipple intake and nw102 boosted. 30 minute log
2. Using his whipple intake and nw102 boosted HOWEVER: This time I milled our the inlet of my AIRRAID heat shielding and fitted it to
Rick Hollenback’s intake....
I was right!!! I saw .1-.2 degrees of IAT change... if that is actually even that accurate or considered a change. Lolol DANGIT!
So yes. He could make you a heat shield to make you feel better about yourself, make it fancy color and then charge even more for the intake and remember, "just to make you feel better about yourself." ?
Looks way better without in my opinion. Definitely took that off ASAP.
Thank you SYNERGY for your wealth of knowledge and proving me and a lot of other minds wrong. You are the real MVP.
