Most difficult thing to swallow is the amount of fluid they displace :? :o

You guys are such rapscallions.

That engine though :scaredtoss:

What if you extended the whale penis to sit at the bottom behind the bumper? Or is that just going to make it worse?

Although they're thick in the middle, surely the limiting factor when it comes to airflow is the size of the hole each end?

When you look at all the different intakes though they all go to the same size hole on the IM. The design has to make some sort of difference or no one would bother.

There meant to work like a chamber of air in the middle that builds up and is there as soon as you need it

Like the A8/S intake then but it's like a fat gentleman's sausage in your bay.
