AUT Cooling Plate Question
Hey everyone. I would like to know everyones opinion about the AUT Cooling plate. It looks nice under the hood, but does it show any signs of gains? Throttle response? Anyone have any experience with this? Is it recommended that I take out the stock cooling plate or just cover over it?
I've done some research, just want to see what people are doing.

i have it and i havent seen any gains or problems. my hood now takes a little bit more effort to close. i have a cai so i got it for more of a cosmetic reason.

If you remove the plastic when you put in an AUT, wouldn't that reduce the amount of air that the radiator gets? I thought the OEM plastic was to direct air into the radiator?

I ripped out my air deflector and all is good.
don't have the AUT anymore, but I noticed less heat-soak at low speeds in traffic. the plate blocked out engine heat and drew air from above the rad. I didn't notice my car over heating either since taking out the OEM deflector.
