Wonder why they make it turn back on itself towards the back of the engine bay! Isn't the back of the engine bay a lot warmer than the front...not much fresh air back there!

It's because of the scoop on the hood. it rams air to the back.

I forgot about that...I wonder how loud that intake is? I'd still buy local and get the PRM.

Looks nice, but I'd rather have a CAI.

YEAH! It looks like Top Fuel retained their famous "tunnel chamber" or whatever they call it in the design. I noticed most of the aftermarket intakes that are out now have the same box type chamber system.
