Best cold air intake

[TooManySS's]

If you want to call it ranting, by all means.
It is about time this forum put and end to this promotional bull crap.
Vendors in the vendor area and out of normal posting.
Then just a sticky with all the manufacturer type kits available and the so called possible norms one should consider.
Its old seeing each every type kit having its own WOW post promoting crap whole then reading thesame thing for another wow kit thats better than the rest.

Its starting very much to look like a Honda forum instead of a resurrecting a muslce car one!!

Capturing air from a sectioned off area of the engine bay over the front tire isnt much of a differance. Its a very nice clean, cool look, but im talking performance on the table.

Just think of this when your car is idling at a traffic light, the air temperture in the engine buy will increase over 20 degrees and will take more than five minutes of driving time to disapate. Your IAT sensor will continue to read that and add knock if it finds it nessessary on a hot day.

If your IAT sensor is reading true cold air, the temperture will still go up in the intake system, but disapate much quicker once you start driving.

That is the way I've always known it as well.....

Most of what Ive seen are systems that have a larger breather head larger pipe that relocate the filter, but none so far are collecting air from totally outside the engine bay area. There isnt much room to pipe your filter where it collects air outside the engine bay. So really your gains are from a larger, less restricted filter than stock, but not cooler air.

Now actually because your still going to breath in air from the engine bay, it will still have the same knock retard issues that your stock filter had. A tuner can reduce some of that factor by decreasing some tables in the IAT.

I'll shown you one. I can make 1/4 mile runs in 80* ambient heat and not encounter a single degree of knock retard. I can maintain 17.5 degrees advance the entire run (obviously except during shifts) and not exceed low 130's IAT at the end of the run. The video you recorded and the log from that run at the muscle car shootout is attached. Zero KR and 133* thru the traps.

Why do you keep bumping threads like this?

It's BJ1, do you have to ask.

On a lighter note, at least he knows how to use the search function. Now if we could get him to learn the relevancy button, all would be good.

It's SUNDAY!! NASCAR reminded him to stroke his K&N button! He revived 2 OLD threads about CAI's that were years old!

Nice set up under your hood....
Looks like you have a few things I haven't seen listed....

What kind of CAI is that....
I ask just in case you that isn't really the intake.....

Did you not notice that the post you quoted was from 2.5 YEARS ago?

Well if half the people knew how to use the search function, we'd be down to only 15 "What's the best CAI?", "What headers should I get?", "Which exhaust should I get?", Will this void my warranty?" threads a day...lol!!

And you would probably bump all 15 of them anyway.

Wrong person.

Blaqy is actually coming around. I still think someone has hijacked his account though.
