I recall reading the OP did some ambient temp testing before and after ... and concluded it did indeed lower temps in the engine bay. I have Typhoon's, so getting cooler air up into the engine bay was important to me.

Did it net power gains worthy of $75 ? Who knows. It would cost roughly three times (75 dyno run, 75 do install, 75 after dyno run) as much to do a before and after dyno.
