Instead, you're changing your story faster than some of us can read. Now you want him to add ducts to your IC - which you don't sell as a part of the IC kit - to "make things fair" ?? Puuhhleeaaze.

Testing was recorded during crusing and acceleration and yield a couple degrees higher than ambient during cruising. (Can't get any better than ambient with an air-air intercooler) Chuck thinks he's going to see 50-100 degrees less with the VMIC than the SMIC. IMO, I doubt that's going to happen.

Additionally unless your car is tuned right at the limit it’s not going to make that much of a difference.
I think you need to jump over to the other thread, and read what I posted as to why I think a VMIC isn't any better than a SMIC in some aspects.

I want to apologize to HedgeHog for the attitudes of some of my statements. Even though I was trying to help, I said it in a very unpleasant tone like a dad yelling at his kid when the kid did something wrong It was not the best way to make a suggestion and sometimes I don't think too much before I type. I am really sorry about it.
I applaud his effort to make a different kind of vmount. I got my emotion carried away. I only wish him the best for the setup and hopefully my previous emotional behavior will not affect his decision of sharing his expereince with the forum members.
