Stock airboxes are only designed to flow enough air for a stock engine.

>>14000899
ITBs are supposed to go though an airbox, dumbass.
>>14001048
That's why you buy actually engineered aftermarket airboxes.

don't forget the resonance
crude intakes don't have it

Maybe oem ones like for a BMW, no aftermarket ones are designed with this in mind.

On most modern cars with a mostly stock setup, unrestricted airboxes, and good supplies of air-----drop in filter

On older vehicles with restrictive airboxes or vehicles running more modification:
-Low-mid range power-----SRI with a heatshield and air routing from the bumper
-Mid-high range power-----CAI

intakes does not do anything unless your pushing real high hp levels...the stock with a GOOD air filter thats NOT blocked up with dirt will do FAR more than doing some of the after market upgrades...

P.s getting a cold air intake and not boxing it in right to where its sucking in warm air...kinda defeat the point

None are gonna offer real performance gains besides a CAI. But they are risky to run on a daily driver cause there's little filtration. Short rams offer no real gains but if you get a big enough one, you wont lose anything. Plus they sound amazing and look cooler.
