new intake
So...
I finally was able to plumb up Dans intake system how I wanted to originally, With a dual filter system the long cone utilizing the original passenger fender cold air ducting routing back to the intake tube which has a Y system into a smaller shorter cone positioned right for the hood scoop.
The idea behind this is:
1. With a dual filter system air always has the harder and easier path of travel depending on velocity.
2. The dual system still allows for the same low end torque as the previous single short ram system.
3. the system is *closest to stock config for sensor purposes, routing is more direct, less needless travel.
4. System now has two cold inputs for actual air circulation.
Naturally from a stop when he floors it the throttle bodies butterfly plates will angle and it will pull in air, of course as he floors it air will travel through the fastest easiest path i.e. the "short ram" but since the "short ram" and the "cold air intake" are plumbed together at the base of the system right before the MAFS and TB plate with a "Y" piece the velocity of the air being pulled from the "short ram" will also slowly start to pull more and more from the "cold air intake" and at high speeds when the velocity of the intake charge is at its highest pressure the OEM fender venting for intake will create more pressure from the vehicles front wing and thus the intakes will both be pulling cold air from pressure build up on the bonnet, and from the front wing.
It also sounds nice when he Revs the motor up and you hear the intake pulling from the hood scoop, and the original fender venting.
I will post pictures at some point.
