That's a 12 degree F drop. Sounds good to me. You can lower it more if you foil shield the bottom of the airbox with several layers. Cheap and easy.

Yup, and if there is room put 1/16 sheet balsa wood between the layers and then again. Get it at the hobby shop. So you wind up with foil-balsa-foil-balsa-foil. You can put it together with contact cement. Or spay on interior glue.

That is Wildcard's thread

Me talking something on the other thread:

Then Wildcard responsed:

Then it is even better

That is it?

I have not got the Odula intake yet (in shipment), so I cannot confirm if VFAD removal is required or not.
