But IMHO, the stillen has plenty of open area to draw from. The right side (in the picture) is wide open but is sealed off from the engine bay.
Yeah but when all is said and done it is just a replacement air box. There is a ton of plastic **** below that completely thwarts air coming directly to the filter (think there are three peices including one with foam on it). A CAI is vastly superior to any short ram setup because it removes all of that crap and takes cold air directly from the outside with no obstruction besides the mesh on the bumper.

Again, IMHO there is no restriction to the Stillen. It has all the oem openings plus a HUGE one the right.

If you what to claim a CAI is "vastly superior", that's fine. Got some dynos to prove this?? Due to the overal lack of data showing ANY siginificant gains for pretty much ANY intake, that is pretty much my stance.

I'm willing to look at any decent independant info if you got it. For reference, that doesn't mean digging up the Fujita intake dyno in their for sale thread

IMHO, no intake available for the G/Z is really that great.
