Here's what I do , I'll buy one and test it in April at our Dyno day here is
the North West . I have a VR6 with a K&N Cone filter now and a TT chip .
Anyone else have any ideas ? Can you wait till April to find out the answer
?

Think about it.  The dyno tests they show are from a stock airbox to a 
conical K&N filter w/ the hamster.  The K&N should net you a good 4-5% st 
start with.  So that fan is on;y giving 3-4% over that.  

A 5% gain through air pressure would be about 1/2 to 1psi.  Thats equal to a

moderate to strong fart.  

As far as putting it on turbo cars:  The turbos running at 8+psi would be 
pulling the air through the hamster, faster than the hamster can run and
burn 
the motor out in a few months. 

My thoughts are this:  DO the Philly ram air mod, atleast the air is cold.  
Take the other $310 and put it toward some cams.
