Review on ๐ŸŒฌ๏ธ Silver Thermo-Tec Cool Tube Shield 14500 by Bill Schlag

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Aluminum is an excellent conductor of heat, and if your air intake .

People claiming "it doesn't work" clearly haven't completed a full assessment of their alleged heat issues. The first step is to measure the reading of the intake air temperature sensor and evaluate the curves (ambient air temperature versus fresh air temperature versus IAT reading) based on several variables: relative humidity, vehicle speed, radiator and exhaust manifold fan speeds. Downpipe (Example) Temp. Study the collected data BEFORE installing this product, and repeat the study under the same conditions AFTER installing this product. Aluminum is an excellent conductor of heat and if your intake is directly in front of the radiator fans you will certainly experience some percentage of heat in that area. This product successfully reduces the amount of heat in the area where it is applied. What most people don't consider are other components that are targets for heat: intercoolers, poorly insulated airboxes, etc. If you expect your intake air temperature to drop by 20-30% after installing this product. Well, you don't understand the much bigger picture, and you might not understand the life cycle of heat dissipation under your own hood either. I gave this product 4 stars out of 5 because it is messy but effectively reduces heat absorption at the suction arm where the product was applied. I agree aliens hate it.

Pros
  • Exhaust fumes and emissions
Cons
  • unreliable
