Default Performance Air Intake

I am thinking of purchasing the performance air intake kit with the polished stainless steel tube and K&N cone filter from Mina Gallery. Does anybody have this setup ? If so your thoughts. Thanks...

The stock air filter box is replaced with an open style K&N cone filter. I don't know if that is a cold or warm air intake.

You haven't indicated which model/engine you are wanting to "upgrade". Adding your model/engine/production year to your signature line helps us to help you...

I suspect the "hot air intake" remark was a bit tongue-in-cheek, as that is what you will get with the combo you are suggesting. Well, that and K&N oil coating the inside of your intake system, MAF and throttle body...

go with the Mina Gallery kit.
its around 7-10 hp gain with a true cold air partition panel . ( if ) you put radiator foam in the rite places .
the J-Pipe you see is custom . .
i believe there is more power to be unlocked by replacing the flat black intake elbow across the top of the engine with the range rover one . someone on here has posts about this .
