No such a thing, you can either have a cold air intake (which came on your car from the factory) or a warm air short ram intake. You cannot have both.
so you would suggest i just leave the cold air intake in place as typically it will give me more power, correct?
K&N is playing fast and loose with terms. By definition, a short ram is way too short to be anything but a warm air intake.
As for power increases, by changing the intake path you change the resonance in the intake plumbing. By changing the resonance you may well add a few extra ponies up near redline at wide open throttle, however, that comes with a tradeoff in that mid-range resonance is virtually always reduced which will in turn reduce our mid-range torque. So, where do you want the best power?
