i always get confused what i wanted to know is that does it really make a diffrence between cold air intake and the one that just sits on top like does the cold air one really help out or the other one is better than the cold air i mean does one give less power than other or they are the same

 

long or short reply?

It's a very long debate and some stuff is simple math and common sence, while other stuff takes number crunching like all hell to figure out.

 

I like this short ram: thumbup:

 

with that setup pebble > K series

 

Hope there isn't any ambient poultry around, eh?]

LOL!!!

 

well it is true that colder air has more oxygen in it makeing for a bigger explosion in your cylinders so i would go with cold air but there are debates that short ram is capable of producing more power. So its up to you but like i said i would go wih the cold air.

 

Just make sure if you go cold air that you use a bypass valve and you put the plastic covers back under the car ie: fender liner and lower liner. I had a ricer come in the shop the other day, 99 GSR Integra. NICE car, few too many vtec stickers and the "type R" but anyways, he had an AEM CAI and never put liners back on, and didnt use a bypass valve and he sucked some water up, and #3 Piston/Rod/Sleeve didn't like that. It's was ok for him, because his parents paid for the repairs. so $4300.00 later he rolled out with fresh bottom end, new oem liners, and bypass valve!

 

i got a cold air but not with bypass valve all i do when it rains or i see its going to rain i just take of the extension and move it up

 

I've always run cold airs, w/o bypass valves, and I've never had a problem.

 

Learned this lesson the hard way on my first, first gen crx. Bad rainy day hit a puddle and badda boom long story short I had to walk home that day...

 

From what I have read you get a equivalence of 1 hp from 10 degree drop in the intake temp

 

I dont understand why they call it a cold air intake..all it is is a hose with a filter what makes the air cold?

 

the filter isnt in the hot *** engine bay

 

ooo alright

there are no explosions only controlled combustions in your engine!

 

has anybody seen those intake filters that are long than the normal size one waht about that will that make a diffrence in performance o its just an air filter

edit button...


the more filter area the less work the engine needs to do to suck in air...

does it make any difference.. probably not..

 

The colder the air the more condensed it is, the more condensed it is, the more FITS in.
