I thought this was pretty neat and informative:

Anyone had any problems with their intakes, as far as water in the engine? I swear I must call AEM every month or two pestering them about the s2000 (nonexistent, yet) CAI. My roommate has an ITR with an aem intake, and though it's a little 'honda-esque' (higher pitched, "buzzy" and not "rumbly"), the buttometer definitely feels good (that sounds kind of bad, doesn't it).

FYI: There's a reason why Spoon Sports' S2000 race car retains the factory airbox, whereas the rest of the engine (cams, ECU, flywheel, headers, exhausts, pistons, etc.) were heavily modified. The only 2 mods Spoon did to their air box are:

1. Cut away the plastic wall
2. Carbon intake duct

According to my sources at Spoon, after extensive testing they found the stock air box more efficient than any other gimmick they tested on the track.

I could see adding more insulation to the whole air feed path (cooler is better). Or possibly an ice bucket or swamp-cooler system for hot weather. I had a water injection system on my old 240Z and the engine was definitely made crisper (or is this mostly a substitute for high octane gas?).
