Misunderstanding on my part.
I interpreted your post as saying people on this board only do cosmetic stuff to their cars.

Performance parts for our cars aren't plentiful and the ones available generally come at a high price, so seeing what could be a decent gain for what it is, a low cost air scoop would be awesome.

To Reach:
Bottom line for products like ducts or intakes, the goal is to increase airflow to the engine. So how is my comparison off base? Ducts are used on the M's to cool the brakes and Dinan makes a pretty penny charging $300 for a molded piece of plastic to function like what RPI is making at what we hope will be significantly less than the Dinan version.

There may be a significant difference between a duct like this and a fully prepped race car with all its aerodynamics worked out, but bottom line, the goal is to aide in improving air flow.
