Default Please identify this air intake

I saw an intake on a customer's car that I have never seen before. The intake replaced all of the factory intake parts and was a smaller tube followed by a bigger tube chamber. After the bigger tube, then came a smaller tube and funnel looking end. This system was a short ram style and ended behind the passenger headlight.

No, the intake had an open end much like the air inlet on a turbo. thanks.

Does anyone know if the PRM intake out performs the factory box?

1. The PRM is shorter than most intakes. The longer the intake tube, the more flow is reduced.
2. The PRM has a straight-through conical filter. This means the intake air doesn't have to change directions when it passes through the filter.
3. The filter element is a gauze type, similar to K&N, which will flow more air than the sponge-type filters.
4. The PRM also has a huge velocity stack, which (according to Bernoulli's priciple) will greatly increase air speed.
5. The PRM only has a gentle curve in the piping- the fewer changes of direction, the better the air flow.
6. When the car is moving, the PRM draws cold air from the opening on the side of the radiator, and the hood helps direct the airflow to the velocity stack.

i guess the main "good thing" about this intake is the velocity stack
