Question about RM cold air option

[Jason Weaver]

I was wondering if anyone had any experience with the cold air intake option from RM. I currently have the RM intake (with the nitrous system)

and I was wondering how much performance one would gain with the cold air option (if any at all). Kinda looking for some real world experience. Thanks in advance for any information.

I have the RM NOS and the cold air intake. It probably gives a small performance gain but it also requires much more maintenance to keep the filter and tube clean because of the increase of air flow into the filter.

Would you consider the performance gains worth the $165? I am not particularly worried about the maintence as much, I believe I can stay on top of that. Obviously,anytime that you are cooling the intake charge, you should be making hp (in theory). I guess it would depend on the climate and the temperature. I am just trying to justify the money in terms of performance. If you had to guess, what kind of increase would you see? 2-3hp? 5hp? Just wanted to get you guy's opinions. Thanks for the help.
