AcuraFanatic, if you dont mind, would you elaborate on your qualifications to make that statement?

I'm not trying to be a dick here, but none of us have a dyno graph for one of these things sitting in front of us and I would like a more logical reasoning for why it WONT work as opposed to more one line posts.

As I'm sure showgunz can tell you, the shape of the pipe is very important. The most important part of an intake's effectiveness is air velocity into the throttle body. The velocity of the air into the throttle body is governed by the fluid system created by the intake pipes. If the fluid were an ideal noncompressible substance, the junction of the pipes of two different diameters would create a larger air velocity in the smaller pipe going into the throttle body. This can be shown with the fluid continuity equation

A1V1=A2V2 where A is the crosssectional area of the pipe and V is the velocity.

This of course is an oversimplification of the system involved. The real system involves compressible fluids which would involve subsystems and differential equations i am not qualified to evaluate.

My point is, it's ridiculous to dismiss the V2 as a gimmick unless 1. you are remotely qualified to do so (which I am not, as an EE/CSE major, I am merely speculating that this is possible) or 2. we get a dyno that shows this whole thing is ridiculous.
