Your right 10hp is no reason to pick a different part. I might as well put on an ls6 instead of my fast because that's only 10hp, and than switch it out for an ls1 because that's only 10 hp, shorty headers on instead of lt's because that's only 10hp and and leave stock lid because that's only 5hp. **** that only adds up to about 50hp or so. Idc I beat cars with fast intakes sitting on ther cars.
On the heat soak yea the air is going into the engine so fast its not going to heat up from sitting in the intake. The deal with the heat is that the alum. intake is going to hold heat longer then the composite. If your running rounds or racing on a road course then it will matter. So cooling the car down between races is going to be harder.
Go to the track and cool the motor down and, ice down the intake and compare the #'s to those when hot lapping the car.

What??? People spend big money for 1HP. Once you reach the bolt on ceiling your going to have to spend a bunch of cash to make small gains. To me 10 HP is alot.
