And if you want to be very aggressive go turbo charging with this type of intake!

It's more than 2-4 hp. There is no reason ever to buy a short ram. You would be far better off with maf tubes and drop ins. It doesn't matter if you believe it or not. That's the beauty of facts- they don't require one's belief. Short ram intakes are the scarlet letter of "I don't do research". Be happy with your purchase, that's fine. But don't go around recommending them like you're giving good advice. You're not.

Again dyno results.

Chuck...no mechanical aptitude. I guess that entire turbo build we did or the built track car in the backyard don't count.

Actually, I think you read this one backwards. He was saying a short ram benefits someone with less mechanical aptitude.

That is not what I meant. Chuck has the mechanical ability and I was referring to the folks that don't. My apologies for it sounding the wrong way Chuck.

Are the Nismo R-tune intakes any good?

The actual formula is (9/5)*TempC + 32 = TempF. Except for easy numbers that 9/5ths typically requires a calculator. I just substitute 9/5ths for 2 and it makes the math simple and gets you in the ballpark
