No real input, just looking forward to the results.

I'm vying for the W.R.A.I.Th to win.

So you're going to do 6 different test states, right?

Cold air normal
Cold air RAM
Underhood air normal
Underhood RAM
Warm normal pressure
Warm RAM

Or is the underhood the stand-out test?

I think the OE intake should represent the underhood test, actually. It's the best representation of what the car would normally see, and will allow qualification of any gains that come from either of the other tests.
