i am looking to make a custom fab aluminum intake box to put in my engine bay and around my air filter so no water gets sucked up...it is a 3inch short ram intake, anyone have any ideas? thanks

 

take a look at the comptech ice box. Its a good and fairly straight forward design.

 

im kinda looking to see if anyone has any custom setups?

 

yo im not trin to gice you **** or nothin but you should search first

my setup my buddy made for me...


another pic of it in my old car...

 

Heres a couple shots of mine I made out of metal tubing and fiberglass

 

Here it is (installed on the car of a friend) my custom airbox named VP2 with internal big velocity stack






and here it is the variable flow version ( you can set the air flow according to your mods)

completely open air flow


completely closed air flow

 

^ woah! ^

nice!

 

please can you explain your design a little better. and how this will help

 

thanks for all the pics they are all close to my idea...im probably going to have to draw something up and then design it...

 

Yes of course Matt. Let’s say that VP2 is an airbox chacterised by a large volume of air (about 10 liters) already

filtered and therefore immediately suitable for being injected into the engine. Inside the cylinder you will find a special alluminum stack finalised to increase air pressure and air velocity. Laterally a heating barrier prevents the sucking of warm air coming from the engine. The efficiency of the system compared with others AB just comes from its big volume and the fact that the internal airflow meets no further obstacle before the injection, eccept the throttle. Several dyno tests have been made compearing VP2 and Mugen AB which showed a prevalence of the first one in terms of horsepower and torque. As for the Variable VP2 this represents an evolution which further improve VP2 efficiency mainly to adapt airflow to the set up of different cars as well as the trackrace characteristics.

 

any pics of the internals?

 

thats a huge bitch!

 

BTW, Would it be better to have the front open or the whole filter covered?
