On a NA car, and using the Apex I intake, you think this setup would gain more HP than the standard CAI?

cruising at about 60mph, youll theoretically get a positive pressure of about 0.06 psi. In actuallity, youll get much less due to pipe length, 2D flow effects, and heat addition from the engine
to get 1 psi of positive pressure using a ram air setup like that, youll need to be moving about 228 mph. And thats not even taking into account the losses i said above, so its closer to 250-270 mph. If you want turbo boost levels of lets say 8 psi, youll need to drive at 623 mph. About the cruising speed of a Boeing 777. so.... no -------------------- Its Orville's Celica, i just drive it... |
