I installed a CAI in my Chrysler 3.8 for easier air intake, not for cold air intake. There is no baffle or divider between the VERY hot exhaust manifold and filter cone 'cept a couple of flatted big beer or Monster drink cans(depending on which one vibrates off), to keep overheating the cone.
That's all...
P.S. sounds little like a race minivan

P.S.S. Made a trip 2,560 total miles @ speed
(loaded both ways) from IAH to AUS to PHX(month ago), PHX back to IAH (2 weeks ago):
Trip there ~ 24.7 with Austin rollers and much stop and go, trip back, 25.7 more loaded but only necessary stops.
MPG's from center console so actual MPG's ARE dif. I'm adjusting here for my lack of computation skills but 22.6 and 23.2 ?
Anyone care to calculate better?
