One of the things to consider is also doing dyno runs with the hood closed. I've seen some setups that could make more power on the dyno because the hood was open and it could pull in fresh air. But, with the hood closed it would either restrict the filter box, or made it pull in hot air. It's a good test since you don't normally drive with the hood open.
@nbrowser Жыл бұрын
Yep...Gale Banks of Banks Engineering is adamant about this as well, do the runs with the hood closed...it makes the vehicle act like it was if it was on the actual road. A vital key is making sure you have enough air being blown at the front end of the vehicle to simulate the windforce as if the thing was moving down the road too.

@SCHIJTERBAASАй бұрын
It all depends on the orginal air box and how you install these open air filters. Most poeple choice the cheap dumb ass root of sucking in all the hot air of the engine bay(Killing performance....). These days buy a 3D printer and print the exact box for it so only cold air can be sucked in(Bonus if you create extra ducts for more cold air here, for example create from the brake duct in your bumper a tube to your 3D printed air box increase the cold air comming to the box). And only if you can defeat the same heat as the orginal air box you will see a improvement and if you can get it colder all kudos to you. But mostly its indeed better to stay orginal since these people will not take the time to fight this big problem with open air filters. You probably know this to already but the performance increase if done correctly is not that big if the OEM manufacturer didn't fuck the orginal air box up for emissions or sounds reasons(Really small chance that you have a car with OEM filter box that sucks so much for this to outway a shitty install of a open air filter.).

I used to keep all factory air cleaner parts on all the cars I've owned. The first time I ever installed a short ram intake it was on a maroon 94 Honda Accord. The air cleaner was getting brittle and I was going to have to remove it to do maintenance. Before I did, just in case, i dropped by the junkyard and wandered up on a metal short ram from a Mitsubishi and a stumpy pod filter with some life left from another car. I bought the pipe and filter for only 7 US dollars. I kept it on hand in my parts pile for a while. The day came where I had to remove the stock air cleaner for maintenance. The plastic and rubber immediately cracked and ripped in my hands. After my maintenance was done I then had an open throttle body and no coupler/ appropriate clamp to just slap the junkyard pipe onto. I had a parts store like 3 miles away and no other way to safely get there. I took a pair of old clean cotton boxers and I used the stock clamp to hold it on the throttle body. I let the car drive itsself to the store. I didn't give it much throttle because I didn't want to blow a hole in the cotton and suck the boxers into the engine. Got to the store and grabbed up a cheap Spectre brand coupler to throw on. It was slow at the store so I told the teenage counter guy about what I did to get there and he came out and watched as I put it on in the parkinglot. We both had a laugh and it looked silly because the filter was a half sized stumpy filter but the thing that caught me off guard was the sound. THE SOUND. I loved it. I could hear more from the car. The car felt more responsive throttle wise and the sound to go with it was great. Later on I found that the air cleaners falling apart on 90's Hondas is extremely common. All but 1 of our Hondas we replaced the plastic with 7-35 dollar metal air cleaners. This last week that 1's air cleaner had a bracket fall apart so It's now a metal pipe as well. If you are someone that wants a bit of whistle and a bark you can hear in the cab get a cone filter with the conical valve bit in the end if you just need to put an air cleaner on to replace the old plastic but you don't want the extra noise get a cone filter with a flat front. Those are quiet. I like ditching the plastic and going to metal it just feels right and reliable. As far as any gains I like to think that I feel a difference on the Accords. Civics I don't notice too much. Ultimately changing out a major engine part on a Honda for a better part will give you more results than changing the air cleaner. However it gives you something fancy that you can see and hear to go with your other real upgrades that you've done with the car. For me it's just the personal Cherry on top of my work for myself to enjoy.

I bought a car used with a cold air intake, the filter was located in the fender pulling cold air totally sepaerate from the engine bay, it sounded good not sure it added any horsepower, most modern cars have the inlet in the airstream anyway so it is already a cold air intake. The length and diameter of the intake is carefully considered by the automakers so if they are selling a performance car its likely they have it sorted out already.

@djsanluis Жыл бұрын
Using a conventional air to air intercooler will not lower the intake air temp. The air passing through the intercooler fins is at the same temperature as the air going in through the pipe. The reason you run an intercooler after a turbo is because of how hot the air gets when compressed. So in that case the outside air is much cooler. I would like to see a test with a water to air intercooler with chilled water on a NA engine.
@MrManBuzz Жыл бұрын
If you have an issue of the car sucking in hot air from the engine, an intercooler would help slightly with that. But you'd also be adding restrictions in your airflow and throttle response so any minute gain from it would be lost from the downside. Solution is to just put your intake where it can get fresh cold air.

Not always right. Depends on the car to be honest. My Mazda MX5 k8 engine just responds better with the pod then a stock air box. I have reverted it back and forth and unfortunately it feels like a lug after 4000 rpm with a stock air box high panel filter. Nicer under 4000 rpm.... but feels like it's choked. With a greddy M Pod filter it lost power and felt sluggish. It's bigger then the SCA Pod filters and shape. With a cheap SCA pod filter it just revved freely and pulled past 4000 rpm to redline. Just felt smoother, better and not choking. Gets the revs up quick and performs IMO much better. I love my car better now. so much more fun

@busterscrugs Жыл бұрын
Regardless of whether they gain or lose power, the fact is they allow much more dirt and debris into your engine which will shorten its lifespan. Look up "ISO 5011 Duramax air filter test" if you don't believe me. A stock paper air filter allowed 0.4 grams of dirt through the filter, and took 60 minutes to clog up. The K&N filter allowed 7 grams of dirt to pass and clogged up in 24 minutes. So not only do you get worse filtration, you also have to clean the filter regularly otherwise that 1hp gain turns into a 10hp loss lol.

Do POD FILTERS Make You Lose Power? - Depends on the car, the cars intake system from factory, the elevation at which you live at ( yes this matters), and the quality of the filter. Something like a Sprint air filter for a Super Bike, is time and time again proven to increase power figures. However it is also well known to be a TRACK ONLY filter. Barely "Filters" anything, K&N are bad for this too, but they filter a LOT more than a Sprint... So if you are daily driving you car.. or Bike.,, Highly Recommended against. However a Decent one with an intake tube system can obviously help get more air in faster. Whether the car/bike and ECU can do anything with that is another story completely.

The way he casually brushed aside ram intakes is incorrect: It's not _only_ a 0.xx% power increase; it's more like a 1.xx% power increase. That may not seem like much, but it's potentially free power. The real limitation is that most cars aren't set up from the factory to be conducive to a ram intake, thus it is not beneficial due to the significant re-engineering required to make one functional (rearranging the engine bay/bumper).
