What’s up guys, I was thinking of a debate that I haven’t seen here on the forums. My car: 20’ Civic Si Sedan
As we all know Pro-Civic makes an open grille to enhance air flow in response to the restrictive stock grille. I have one on the way right now. As well as the full PRL Cobra Cold air intake installed already. But I’m thinking.....
Would it be more cooling efficient if I converted to the short ram intake taking in air from this new open grille? Rather than my current setup where the full PRL Cobra CAI filter is located in the bottom area.
Let me know what you guys think about this theory? I may have to run both setups and data log them... I’m curious.
UPDATE: Response from user who has experience with the short ram + open grille setup has let us know that his temps actually went up When changing to the short ram intake. However another user says his temperatures were much closer to ambient with the open grille setup with SRI. Read the forum for more...
