would a generic short RAM intake cause a car to stall at stop signs or intersections due to the hot air being sucked in by the filter? I live in Northern California where we experience summer heat up into the triple digits and I would not want my celi stalling constantly because of the SRI. Also, would my MPG improve?

I had the Ebay SRI on my car for a long time. Although I'm sure you guys get it hotter, we regularly hit triple digits here PLUS humidity. I never had any issues at all. MPG will not improve. You will see it go down, actually, because you'll be flooring it more often just to hear the intake.
