Default Yes, but the rest of the air filter is entraining from the body of the cone...

The pictures clearly illustrate a suspension bracket with open space all around to entrain hot engine air, hence the sporty sound. However, if the snorkel entrainment at the tip of the cone offsets the aggregate charge air temps with enough snorkeled cold air from the fenderwell with a increased flowrate over a high flow panel, then it definitely could add something. look at the ID of the snorkel feed compared to the filtering surface of the rest of the cone. It's possible, but is it probable? The eagerness to purchase without proof on this forum by word of mouth is paradise to aftermarket mod dealers.

20hp w/ Intake + s/w tells me nothing about the intake itself

Default so am. . .

I honestly did feel the car was faster with the intake. But we will see what it really does with a G-tech, for what that is worth
