there a lot of factors at play, and not enough accurate data captured to purely state the intake lowers temps. but anecdotally from my videos ive reviewed i have experienced lower IATs. take that for what its worth |

I did not notice any difference in coolant temps, however ive noticed our cars ran kinda "hot" compared to some other cars, but ive never noticed it being too daunting of a number to really garner my attention. I'm typically actively monitoring oil and IAT while on track. I assume you;re curious as to whether or not efficiency is being compromised by the front mount air intake. Which it could be, but I honestly don't believe it would hamper the air flow that to a degree where its significantly different from stock set up. In addition, I believe the buffer between the intake and coolant radiator is the AC radiator sitting directly behind the filter for the front mount intake. Anyone feel free to chime in and correct me if im wrong on the radiator configuration in our f87s |

That's got to be like a 8-10ft long from filter to turbo. I'm willing to bet it would work much better if it was relocated to the passenger side b58 style. In order to do so, the MAF would need to be extended and coolant reservoir relocated over to the driver side.

Anyone - pictures of how it’s installed? Any logs?
I don’t think it would be an “upgrade” over my CTS in terms of power, and I’m curious on how the longer intake trac would move the powerband, but I heard it does have IAT benefits. |

Hey, can you show pictures of yours installed, what did it entail? I'm considering one for further IAT reduction, did you notice anything there?

I REALLY wish they made this intake double like on the Comp. I understand it's not necessary, but it looks so much cooler. Oh well.
