Pulley down. Boost doesn't care about your intake

I didn't notice any low end lose when going to my hi ram. It's on a gutless 4.8L so the low end lose might not be as noticeable as a bigger ci engine. I've only been driving with it for a week but I really like it

Being a street driven vehicle I am not a fan of a metal intake. Especially in a procharger.

I was always really precocious about buying this hunk of metal for my street driven truck too. But now that I'm running it, its really not as big of a deal as I expected. Yes it does get hot but as fast as the air moves through the intake at WOT, the air can't heat up much. I know you are running meth now too so I wouldn't worry about it.

Agreed to an extent. If iats are somewhat of an issue to begin with then it can be a problem. If iats are not a problem then it won't cause a problem. At the same time IMO anything that causes it to get worst is a bad idea.
