I was thinking about making a custom ram air for my car.
My car's not worth upgrading (doubt I can get any parts, anyway) but something like a ram air would be cheap to do, so I'd like to give it a go.

My car's got a 2 litre engine, which puts out 61hp to the wheels, very underpowered, it won't rev over 5k, but the revmeter goes up to 7k.

I was wondering, since it's so underpowered, with a fairly low rev limit, would I actually see any difference from this mod?

I usually drive my car at about 70mph, and would like more acceleration between 44 and 70mph, for overtaking, etc.

Doesn't sound like you drive a Honda...so what do you drive?

 

ramair is not all that... you have to be going very fast (way faster than legal highway speeds around here) for it to do a tiny bit of work. sorry.

 

i remember you, werent you thinking about making a cold air intake for your car, i would imagine it would be more beneficial than the ram air, esp if you use a fairly restrictive filter right now.......
