I'm sure both of you have the idea. I am however, sick of SRI ricers telling me their intake is better. What you guys have explained makes their argument null and void.

SRI in an airbox will dominate CAI.
and Air is its most dense at 4 degrees, so if you can somehow get the temperature feed to 4 degrees, laffing.
so..... what is the main issue with sri soaking in hot air?
i know its not good for ur engine, i think... but what exactly is it doing?
i have a SRI but i will admit that a CAI will beat it hands down
If you have an SRI setup, it requires a proper heatshield and/or enclosed airbox, otherwise u r just sucking in hot air.

That's coz you went with the whale pod. Unnecessarily big, but if that's the look you like then you'll have to just custom make a box that can bolt onto the standard box holes with a bottom-end air feed. Shouldn't be too hard :)
The whale penis's are prone to 'heat soak' also.U don't want that!
