I have heard that the insulation or intake wrap lowers the temperature of the air in the intake by 15 degrees. Is this worth to buy? I think a kit costs $50. How much hp do you gain by using them on your intake?

"dead air from the side guard"? If you were to compare the air from the side guard, and the air from the bottom of the car, I believe you would find absolutely no difference in temperature. Don't fool yourself, you can't get anything close to ram air effect from an intake, no matter where you put it, and the side guard is far from a airproof box.
