My cold air is restrictive ?

did we all see mine, some one said it as kinda small, what was your reasoning on that???
i would say the elbow with all krincles in it creates alot of turbulance so thats just one that i can think of.

Yes ... restriction is usually a size and shape factor, bigger with less variation in sizes and bends = better typically. Compare the black snorkle portion to the actual airbox inlet... try running by breathing through a drinking straw as an example.
Also any turbulence would be fairly subdued by the air filter.
mar3 posted pics of his less restrictive ducted air intake.. 4" all the way
