Funny! But, I e-mailed them a few weeks ago regarding this and they e-mailed me the dyno results. Unfortunately, I kept recieving them in some un-readable form. After asking them again for a re-send, I still couldn't read it. So, I don't think they're keeping it top secret. Basically, I gave up b/c I didn't want to be a PITA about it. Perhaps someone else could inquire, they seemed to be very forthcoming about the information. I still don't see where the box is getting its air from. The pass. side wheel well? It doesn't look like it is going down that far.

I ordered one 3 weeks ago along with their STB and I'm still waiting !

I wanted a CAI that pulled air from outside the engine bay and wasn't made of metal and water should not be an issue. The Comptech does all 3. If take your front bumper skin ( plastic ) off. You'll see that the area that Injun and AEM CIA collects air is the same compartment used by Comptech. Comptech's intake is located on top of the wheel well whereas the Injun and AEM is low and in front. Functionally this may be one best the CAIs available.

Unclear because my firewall blocked/prevented the file from coming through (S2 INTAKE.lnk). Like I said, they were very forthcoming with the information. If someone else were to contact them via web/phone I am sure they will provide the information.

It should...practically any place that draws air from an outside source will get the benefit of the air moving past the car at speed.
