The reason I wouldnt have a V2 (or other short ram/open cone kits) is I have personal experience with my last car having a short ram kit of just how bad they really are and how it made the car sluggish.

Add power gains on a stock car, with air speed and intake volume and pressure (i'm assuming this can all be tested, not being car engineer I don’t know) do this with bonnet on and off.
Doing this on a moving car instead of rolling road so real world wind speed changes can actually take effect instead of a fan blasting the car even when stationary
I know this involves an air field or strip and messing around changing kits with various probes attached to the car but it would silence 90% of the arguments and maybe quantify the costs of some of the kits
