More my friend...much more. I think this is the funniest semi-accurate way I've ever seen a CAI explained. It's kind of like "Kids say the darndest things."

CAI for the 370 are all way over rated and over priced. Its not needed. Just drop some reusable K&N's in there.

Notice how a car when viewed from the side is shaped like a wing. Much more air & pressure is under the car than over the car. Just like a plane's wing. Flat under car vs roof & over the car. One of the places that the car's pressure (under car) goes/escapes is up through that space in front of & toward the the two stock intake openings. I & the second person on the top 25 list(redline06) run with our air cleaners off. That's not on the street, just at the track. I think I & him get lots of cool pressurized air into my stock intakes. Being in the # one spot & him being second, that idea/set up might be working very well.

I use dry K&N filters. On the street & most of the time at the track.
