Should maybe clarify, when I originally fitted the Airgap I did have it under the hood with a drop base but a very thin filter, at the time I tried to get one of those K&N lids but they were hard to come by over here in the UK then.
The problem I had was that I felt the motor just wasn't giving it everything, from a run on a chassis dyno with the old set-up then a return run with the scoop, the engine found 20hp and that was with relatively hot air in an enclosed bay in the shop where the dyno was, might be a bit more in nice cold air driving on the open road.
