The motor only has the ability to 'suck' so 'hard'.

Got try and breathe through a coffee straw for 5 min.

 

lololol thats an absolute spot on analogy

 

Oh gotcha, so it seems 3 inches the way to go on pipe size?

 

haven't had the first problem or noticed any difference at all from 0-110mph. just the sound from the cowl.

 

Got an EGT gauge or wideband o2 gauge?

Its not like he is saying something extreme or erroneous. Think about it. Smaller opening means less air coming through at a more difficult to 'inhale' rate.

Why would you WANT something small that could choke the airflow?

 

im not trying to argue with anybody. its just that some people thinks its got to be exactly 3.00000000009" I.D. to even be considered. trust me, i understand flow rates, friction loss and all that. i know that its harder for the engine to pull as much air through a smaller opening but it can still pull all it needs. going from 3.00 I.D. to 2.00 I.D. isn't terrible. i know its not ideal but it works. plus im about to install a ram air as well with 2.00 I.D. hose. the intake will breath all it wants and then some.

 

I say sir that I don't believe you lol

 

My 92 would do 110 with 36's and then i put the right speedo gear in and now not so much. 75 is fast enough for that set up thanks. Lol

 

Hahaha that's awesome. Mine doesnt like to go over 80 stock

 

Thats too bad i see stock chero's around here cruise over 80 all the time. Mine runs on the warm side if i go above 78 or so. 70 to 75 it runs just under 200. Maybe i should get me some of those injectors and it will go faster. HA HA

 

Lets stay on topic guys! Remember this is an informative thread, that will be atached to a sticky.

Thanks

 

i have a stock airbox with fender exit snorkel. i bet my 4.7 will push the ol shoebox to 110mph lol but thats an engine built at a race shop... ill try to get some pics of my intake. it took an hour or so to make and ran great til i melted a piston. at least my new 4.7 is coming nov.

 

haha well you may not lol but it will. ran it againt a chevy on a 43 mile long almost perfectly straight two lane road and his truck tac's out at 101 and i walked right around him. it might be 109 or 111 but it will. took bout an hour to reach that speed though. haha.

 

Sorry for the bolts and stuff in the air box. engines half apart and ready to be picked out of there... but you can see the important stuff.







the main piece that runs up the A pilliar is supported by 3 brackets that go on the inside of the the door opening.

 

sry for the jack.
