Yea i know the heat soak issues of the overheating VHR motor. At the same time I will be installing a vented hood and letting cool air through some air hoses from the fangs. The heat shields should protect the filters from getting too hot and the silicone past maf hoses should be cooler than the metal piping on cai intakes also helping the popchargers to work to their potential along with my full exhuast setup. Im also going to paint the metal tubing and ring around the Popchargers with some black heat coating. Again this setup might not make better hp gains than the Stillen Gen 3s but I like uniqueness and bad *** sound.
