Stillen offering Air to Air???
 
Since when is Stillen offering air to air? Stumbled across this pic, and doesn't use the Stillen manifold either. Not sure the origin of it but is curious nonetheless.

Never mind, I see they are using the illustration to try and say air to air is bad.

Yeah that big intercooler and post cooling iat readings would be just terrible.

And it's kind of a pathetic attempt when you consider how they actually implemented it. Where is cooltoy to give us a diagram of what they actually did....

I also love that they put their intercooler inside their intake manifold on top of the motor where it will no doubt be heat soaked...but the pass side pipe to the intake manifold in this diagram is getting too much heatsoak as it "passes over the engine".

Notice how they even show the charge coming out of the intercooler as cool, where as in their actual setup it can come out still cooking.

I commented on this misleading diagram from Stillen, in the the way they are explaining and comparing it to their water to air system a few weeks ago. It's dodgy advertising from them I believe.

It is certainly that, at a minimum.

If they want to draw comparisons it should be apples to apples. Where is the diagram showing their intake along with the air to air setup.

Though admitttedly I don't have to many kind words for Stillen as of late so perhaps my response is tainted.

Wonder why they didn't plumb a single inlet & dual outlet...similar to this flipped over.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...daaf4dad14.jpg

Because then the diagram would come out looking like something you might want.
