MAF cold air tuning?

[GRGT1994]

I am taking a look at mass air flow sensors, and I saw the Granatelli stuff at Summitracing.com. They come in either a standard or cold air tune. The web site explains that the later works better with the turbulent air currents resulting with a cold air induction. Check out the bottem of this page Granatelli Tech .

Anyone know whether this is necessary or appropriate for our cars with a cold air intake. It seems that the fenderwell intakes should not really cause that much turbulance (but maybe they do?). Or are these more appropriate with a ram air set up (like March or homemade)?

I have not actually seen a stock airbox on an SN, but is the factory set up not a CAI style set up (like foxes are)?

I think that's right. It pulls from the fenderwell. The aftermarket CAI's actually locate the filter inside the fenderwell. But you are right, the stock setup is technically a cold air intake.

So what does that mean? Should I look at the cold air tune or standard?

I really have no idea. I might just shoot Granatelli an email and ask. Who better to ask? (though I bet someone on here knows).
