It is made of metal. The inside of my intake is sealed very well and I also sealed all the crevices around where the box attaches to the car.

The ADM intake is made from Aluminum with aircraft quality stainless screws and fasteners. I think the top is plastic if I remember.
I have never had the Top of mine BURNING HOT ever. Now the Tube coming from the throttle body has been very hot but then it was 104 outside here in DFW. |

No offense,but the data does not look correct.
Heat is radiated off the engine and exhaust. Had you said the air inside the box was monitored at a lower temperature after the insulation install it would seem more accurate Our video on our website shows the actual data realtime on the road,shows how well the race intake works. |

It jut seems to me that aluminum conducts heat and if the box were constructed of something more heat resistant like a urethane polymer or kevlar. It might have more heat resisting benefits. That said though. The 6.2 engine gets pretty hot blazing under the hood.
What would really help instead of the box would be a more ventilated hood so when are comes in through the front of the car, it can escape over the engine cooling some things down a bit. Good thing the camaro has oil and transmission coolers. |

Aluminum conducts heat very well....It also conducts cool very well.With that being said,If you feed cooler outside air into an area would that area become cooler?It would,The aluminum would conduct the cooler air and it would cool off(at speed of course).Sitting still ....That is a whole nother world.
By the way when was the last time we raced someone at a drag strip sitting still? It is a great intake,yes it can be modified to work different..My hats off for someone trying something different |

While driving around thats pretty much what I see 0-1 degree over ambient w/ the ADM Race, now sitting in traffic, ect... that is a whole different story, there is no way to keep some heat from getting into the intake when the vehicle is running and stopped.
