Those airboxes insulate a lot better than you might think. This information is for first generation cars, but I don't think it would be any different for the dual-intake setup of the HR.

First - at speed, the intake temps are about 20 degrees above ambient.
When stopped, I have seen intake temps approach 150 degrees without the a/c on. Ambient at the time was about 85 degrees. It took approximately 45 seconds for the intake temp to rise that 45 degrees.

Having the a/c turned on caused the e-fans to run In turn, intake temps were steady at +20 ambient, even when idling in traffic.

Once moving, it can take between 30 and 60 seconds for the intake charges to stabilize at +20 ambient, depending on how hot the charge was to begin with.

An open intake will produce higher intake temps when not at speed. An open intake will also get hotter more quickly, and take much longer to cool off.

Fortunately this is a short-ram setup. The VQ35DE has been observed to lose power when a full length intake was used in conjunction with an aftermarket plenum/spacer. Of course, the 07 plenum is completely different, and might not suffer from the same issues, but I wouldn't be surprised if the effects were the same.

They're out of stock!

Looking to purchase the Fujita intake now, does anyone know of a shop that currently has the intake available? Please advise.
