I was speaking in general.

But specifically, since your second post made me re-read your first......

:....The ram air intake scoop gathers and forces somewhere in the area of 11 times more air than the engine can ingest at 70 MPH.

help me with this sentence.
1. a-b-a. how much air can the engine igest?
2. does it matter past the MAF/ECU
3.how much air prior the this supercalafradulist scope was installed.

Toyota is not Ford. (and I like ford) Ford allows a lot of room for improvement in the engine design and use. See all the bolt-ons for the 5L & 4.6L mustangs.
Toyota tends to enginnner closer to the limit. I worked for toyota in the early 90's.
