What would have been beneficial is if GAP would have provided airflow efficiency results over the stock panzerotti versus CAI direct versus GAP ram panzerotti.... I am not being pessemistic ,but I need results driven by data !!! ;-)
LOL Marc.... hang on to that receipt .....

In the context of CAI, what does better mean (colder air and or more air)? How will you know if it works better? Just curious.I just bought the gap ram air to use with the stock air box.
I.will test it this season!! I hope it will work better then the regular under the hood cai

I dont think you'll notice much of a difference.
Intake temps are mostly affected by the intercooler and how efficiently it's working. (clear/plugged with snow/bigger etc.)
I think a great comparison would be clutch/belt temps, as that ram air blocks all incoming air meant to cool clutches. JMO...

Only way to know is to try it on the same day back to back

Marc and I obviously have the same disease.
I installed this Gap intake when they first became available last winter. LOL...I can't resist these things.
I also have a full screen kit on my sled that I installed before I ever even rode the sled.
It takes a little bit of attention to ensure it fits properly but once installed it looks like a factory piece.
Does it make any difference? Who knows but probably not. I do know the sled runs very strong in all conditions.
If there is any advantage it should be enhanced by the closed loop software I installed for this season.
