Remaining materials needed to finish intake coming at some point today so more updates coming later.

In meantime powdercoated the crossbar the same textured black we’re doing on the intake. I prefer the stealthy look.

Has anyone logged IATs stock and with a whipple? Those would be good #s to have when one of these intakes hits the market.

i'd like to take an IAT sensor and put it in his stock airbox right at the filter and then put one inside the cone filter wherever kruppa decides to mount it and compare temps.

Takes the load off of the turbos when the throttle is quickly closed.

yep, air is flowing away from turbos when on gas and when you let off gas air starts flowing backwards and if you don’t release the air with the bov the air would make the turbo slow down with air pushing its rotation the opposite way and can damage the turbo.
