Hello all. Just wanted to see how much of an effect the top flight license plate bracket would have on a the air going into a vararam intake.


Thanks

Where do you have the licence plate bracket, in the middle?
If so, it will block direct air into the Vararam intake.
Ideally, a bracket to the side would be better to avoid impeding air going to the Vararam intake.

Show us a pic of your bracket.

Kinda figured that was the case. cant really move this one to the side.

What about an intercooler? Wouldn't think it would have to much effect on an intercooler, but just curious. May end up removing it if its going to be an issue.

I would definitely relocate that or remove it if you can't.
