one review by a mechanic (paid sponsor) who loves how they don't use hp gains, just real numbers on air flow.

These are back ordered everywhere. I’m hoping the intake tube on the new shipments are nice and smooth like in the photo above. All the installed photos I’ve seen so far have an uneven line stamped into the tube running lengthwise. Makes it look cheap. The Roto-Fab intake tube looks the best.

Just started a thread in the general area about this. I just bought mine 30 minutes ago because I had a coupon. They were back ordered 2-3 weeks now it’s 30-40 days. Will probably be longer. 
 

I spoke to S&B support and they said they had to change the production process for COVID reasons. 
 

I guess order it now if you want it some time this year. Lol.

I had to wait 2 months for mine. It’s massive and sounds great. Wish it looked more factory like the GM CAI though but I still like it a lot.

The only thing I didnt like about the S&B was that extra opening in the top air box that gives it a louder sound, but also sucks in hot air from the engine bay.

they say its "suppose" to suck air from the fender but hard to tell with out testing and checking temperature readings.

my IAT's on the OEM fender CAI are logged from HPtuners and average 81-86 F fully warmed up summer weather

How close to ambient is that?   I did a little testing of the IAT's.

    • You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling. 
    • You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built. 
    • Diesel hit $6.00 here today at the truck stop.   Payed $2.79 for E85 today too.
    • Thanks for posting, I'm sure it will help someone
