My mechanical background is not great at all so here is my question: You mentioned due to the expansion areas within the intake manifold that provides air cooling capabilities but must be turbocharged, what models within the Porsche lineup would use this type of design? I'm assuming only the turbocharged models but figured I'd ask the question. Thanks for the information!!! Keep up the good work!!!

Its not all rainbows and unicorns. Almost every single manufacturer out there is trying to build their vehicles in a way they will fall apart after 3-4 years of driving, so people have to keep buying new ones. They make components that wear out quicker and electronics that fry and self destruct quicker to the point where buying a new car becomes more sensible since it becomes too expensive to maintain a 4 year old one. All german brands including Merc, BMW, Audi and porsche are doing it. Hondas are not that great nowadays either with their automatic transmissions becoming worse by the generation. So far I haven't seen very little evidence of toyota doing the same but I'm not 100% sure. If they make vehicles that last 15-25 years, they are hurting their own sales and bottomline.

Naveen Kumar Naveen, I don’t think your premise holds up when you look at the statistics. Overall, cars are lasting longer than ever, with the Asians, of course, leading the way. America is second, and the Europeans, the group you specifically mentioned, are the worst. Still, I think it’s a bit cynical to think that they’re trying to build lousy cars. Anybody who did something so foolish would simply get killed by the Asian manufacturers! I also have to take exception to your throwing Porsche in with Mercedes and BMW regarding reliability. I don’t know a lot about their SUVs and their passenger cars, but I know the 911 still has a reputation as being one of the most reliable sports cars money can buy.

I somehow agree with naveen but not to the whole extent. Manufactures are not making their profit from selling you cars, but instead selling you warranty and servicing your vehicle. Part prices and labour have sky rocket recently and most manufacture knows the trend of DIY individuals are growing fast. Hence this is why most cars have a very sophisticated electronics so only the dealer can trouble shoot which is where their profits are mostly from.

Peugeot had a plenum built into their 404 and 504 cylinder heads. On the 404 here was a short, single throated manifold from a single barrel carb that was watercooled. The ports to each cylinder were cast into the head for a few inches. These heads were very wide in order to accomodate the fournals. This allowed for very uniform temperature regulation of the fuel. It worked out to be very efficient. So, for instance, their 2400 lb 404 sedan would easily get 30 mpg from a 1600cc motor was reasonably peppy and could go 100mph.

They merely medicated the effects of reversion. Chrysler did almost identical thing in 1964 with their NASCAR intake that operated at 104% +. And when air is cooling it's Contracting, not expanding. But it is more dense and the expansion chamber and the short Runner means there's more available air to go into the intake when it's not under the effects of reversion. You're going a long way around the barn 2 explain a really simple fix that I've built in a sheet metal shop in the span of about half an hour in intake systems.
@Tore_Lund5 жыл бұрын
Not entirely correct: two laws; Boyle's law, the one about pressure, volume and temperature interdependence and also Bernoulli's law about cross section pressure and speed: So what is missing in this video is that when you increase the cross section of the piping speed slows down but pressure increases, quite the opposite of what is explained in this video. A traditional trumpet intake is like the nozzle on a fire hose, widest at the start where the hose connects and pressure is highest and narrow at the business end where pressure is zero but speed is high. The reason this is used on NA engines is because you want high speed air going through the valve helping with mixing, not to increase pressure, it actually reduces it. So going the other way, expanding the cross section, you slow down the air, but increases its pressure, and temperature! However I don't think neither Porsche or our friend got this wrong, so what is explained in this video (which is also mentioned) is for a specific rpm and load where the pulses from the valves actually go into a resonance with the chamber , so that the combined effect makes pressure drop in the wide section of the manifold! Just think about a turbocharger: The impeller does not make pressure, it increases the speed of the air as it leaves the circumference of the blades. Turbo pressure first happens when that air is slowed down in the annul around the turbo. This is why we have turbo surging when the flow is too small, no acceleration of air is possible and the impeller just becomes a solid mass of rotating air, doing nothing.
