[quote][i]Originally posted by DizzyRebel[/i] Heat soak is the biggest load of toss you will hear. The only time heat soak will pose any tiny problem is on a baking hot day sat in traffic doing 5mph, even then the only thing you will notice is maybe some loss of low down throttle response. As soon as a car is moving, any warm air in the engine bay is instantly displaced by cool air coming in the front of the car. The only time an engine benefits from an enclosed induction track is when a ram air system is used to pressurise the airbox. This is usually only used on motorcycles and is only really functional over 100mph. Otherwise, race cars run open itb's... The bogging people refer to is because the engines are running too lean and need re-mapping to suit the new filter as the old induction track was so restrictive, not because of 'heat soak' The cheapest cone filter will give you same results as an expensive enclosed filter. Dont let anyone else try and persude you (and themselves) by telling you an enclosed filter is worth £200 more than a cone. [/quote]
