I hooked a length of 3" brake duct to the SC and replaced the filter and guess what,...there was little or no difference to the intake air temp. So little that I call it an insignificant difference. This is with my water to air AC and the pump running, so I figured maybe the intercooler is taking out the heat as its supposed to but that will not allow me to test the theory of hot air entering the SC so I turned the pump off and let it run like that, the air temp raises but stabilizes and there is no big diff between where the filter is located either.
