I think its in your head. I added the superchips, then the AEM and Poweraid throttle body spacer. When that was done, I thought the goat hit the pavement even harder. The air rushing in is awesome. Now, with the new Super Flowmaster 44's the seat of your pants dyno says it rocks!!! Im gonna get her dynoed this sring. So the numbers will tell. Hey, has anyone had their goat dynoed after installing the AEM to actually measure the HP increase?

Well, that is cool. You probally cant even tell that they are out with the hood closed, since the mesh honeycomb inserts stay on. It should make under the hood temperatures go down as well! I guess you could keep em in the trunk incase you ever get caught out in the rain and pop 'em back in. HMMM, With the upcoming cool spring air, the goat ought to like that fresh air rushing in! Thanks for the info.

Correct, it's not very noticible when they are out. If you get down to the hood level and look staright in you can see the AEM intake tube, so that's cool. I leave mine out in the winter too and I go through the local wash & shine place, no problems. There is a little bit of water that does get in, but it's only a few drops and nothing near the intake filter. No snow out here in the Bay Area, not sure about keeping them out in that environment

The goat may see rain once in a great while, but she will never see snow!! I'm sure this spring/summer/fall she will see a little more rain when caught out in it on a nice summer day and how those unpredictable thunderstorms arrive out of no where! I've got to start using her more!!!

So you are in Law Enforcement; does the real Mafia still exist in NJ? I know, too many Soprano episodes... Rudy G. cleared most of New York, but curious about NJ...
