I changed from it to the Z1 and I've noticed my oil temps running a solid 5 degrees cooler. That short ram system being in the engine bay sucks hot air. You'll notice it having a little more pep at first, but it will heat soak fast.
I suspect also intake air temps may be lower?

I love my Z1 setup as well. The Sound alone makes it more than worth it. It really does a great job of adding responsiveness and is louder than some of the harsh mechanical sounds of the motor.

The oil temp gauge was my only confirmation, but I have to assume if that was cooler, it was probably a result of the cooler intake temps.
