Default do not forget to account for heatsoak when interpreting the numbers...
the first run will be less effected, the 2nd more so.

Default I guess we'll just "hot-swap" them out on the cars on the dyno then.
That will probably give us some heatsoak losses, but I completely understand the dyno setup issues. I'm really looking foward to it!

Default in the time it takes to swap, things should be back to normal...
they have appropriate fanage going to both IC's.. none of that high school gymnasium bullsh!t.

^^^ Exactly the reason we want to run them on the dyno; need to backup the numbers.

Default lol, good luck getting to that back clip when it's really hot..
I've burned the **** out of myself a few times being impatient.

Default Don't need to mess with the clips...
Remove the one nut on the passenger fender wall and take the whole airbox out (you have to remove both parts anyway, since the darintake hole is in the bottom half). Really takes no time at all.

Default As long as the fans are running, the swap time will probably actually be helpful in cooling down the
car between runs.

That's exactly what we were going to do: just remove and replace the whole intake.
