Yeah, but those 20" spinners help cool it down;LOL
 
About all I can say is, at least it has an air filter. Actually it probably flows okay.

Have a great day,
 
Yep...............PT Barnum was right. Come to think of it so was Darwin...;LOL

forest park Ga. that explains it.
 
So if you wondered whether 20 inchers would look good on your C4 now you can save your money.

I don't see the big deal about the intake, unless you have a hood scoop or something, all your air is coming from under the hood anyway. And unless you've done a throttle body bypass, your intake air is going to be heated no matter what. I must say those wheels look ridiculous, but all-in-all I've seen worse Corvettes on ebay.
 
You'll find those kind of setups on all types of cars where everyone thinks "CAI" (Cold Air Induction) simply means getting rid of the factory air intake and putting an air filter under the hood where, yes, it sucks in warmer air than what's outside. :eyerole

There's A LOT of ignorance out there. (I on rare occasion will display my own.)
At a late night car gathering, I had some kid in a bling'd Cavalier tell me that he heard that a K&N air filter matched up better with a Corsa exhaust than a Flowmaster. I just shook my head with a "Ahhh, that's interesting..." kind of response.

Tyrell, I gurantee you that the air behind the radiator is measurably higher / hotter than in front of the radiator :eek

It is a counter-productive "mod" :ugh
 
:eek oh my. People have some unique tastes when it comes to 'improving' their vette.

I'm not sure what was really the most amusing...the pictures or his incredibly atrocious grammar?!? Did you read all the way down???

Don't the arrows usually have text with it stating I'm with stupid???
