We haven't done one of these installs yet on a G8, so we don't have any graphs. The air filter location is not in an ideal location as far as heat goes, but the ProCharger air to air intercooler is going to remove a lot of the inlet air heat. I really doubt you would be able to see a difference in a graph in the typical 7 to 8 psi boost range between this filters location, and one that had a filter in a more remote location.
A cowl induction hood with the air inlet routed to the back of the hood would look pretty cool! Bob
