roy wrote if it is a forced air setup the engines gotta be modified and should be at about 5500 or better rpm and have a speed better than 75mph.to assist the cold air such as it is to the intake imo. roy what is your point that it is a waste of money on a stock truck. are you saying that the old fashioned air cleaners that sat above the engine and drew hot air from inside the engine compartment is just as good as a ducted system that pulls in air from outside if you are talking about a cowl induction from days gone by id venture that the cowl induction is better. direct shot of coldd air into a carb. if you are talking about today by the time the cold air travels through the filter and through the hot tube to the tb it is no longer cold and not of much if any benifit to a truck running along at 2500-3000 rpm that is having its air fuel mix controlled by a putor. as is any performance increase you might realize in a stock engine. cold air from outside the engine compartment can give gains on many vehicles which when stock pull hot air from inside the engine compartment. heres the thing miles the air is not pulled in it is forced into the filter by the speed of the truck. if the speed of the truck isnt in excess of 80+mph there isnt a whole heck of a lot happening. .
