I have nothing to contribute to this conversation, but I do find it  
interesting and insightful. I would like to share your lesson with some non  URS

Texas Audi Group. Please let me know if that makes you uncomfortable with  
that and I will remove it from there.

Doesn't  surprise me.  I used to be a huge "conehead" for my bikes. But in
that  case I would run 4 (admittedly smaller) cones on a quad-carb setup for
a  750cc motor pushing 80-90, maybe 100hp if I was lucky.  Just  eyeballing
the 4 cones I'd use in those applications must have had the same  or a bit
more the surface area than the single 'somewhat big' automotive  cones, 
which
are trying to serve 3-4-5 times the HP.

I always  wondered about that when seeing some K&N "warm-air-intake"
flashpackage  on a turbo ricer or GTI or whatever...
