My RM13 DIY Air Intake.. what u think?

[donCityZ]

Haha..

Ya all engine bay is hot.. but if u see, the aircond pipe also is metal and IT IS covered by Insuflex type of material to retain its coldness OR to avoid heat coming in to it. So wrapping it SURELY makes a different. Another way is to make heat shields for extractor more efficient.

Make air flow in engine better is good idea too. If u see some car lifted up the bonet near to wiper side. so hot air more easy to go up there. But then ur wiper heated up more and more easy to damage also. I tried it before by put a few nuts between the bonet and bracket. Seems like no different.. (unnoticeable for me).
But i reckon it does make a different coz can feel hot air come out there.

The headlight trick has been done b4... no need to take it out. Smash ur headlight, remove the bulb and the reflector act as a bellmouth. Connect ur hose to intake from there. If police ask, just say accident.. no money to replace headlight yet.

Hahhahahaa..

[moonbiker]

Silly question, i know...but would it be possible to reroute the air-con air to the air intake or perhaps do some piping in that manner? If that's a good idea...i'll get my mech to do it someday...

(me ex-biker...so please bear with teh noobness...)

 

[donCityZ]

Asked a buddy at the office bout the aircon cooling thing, he said that the aircon air is not completely oxygen...? Anybody care to comment?

 

[Nieto]

[donCityZ]

moonbiker,
all air around us is not oxygen wat...
main content is nitrogen/hydrogen forget liao.
but, in colder air, oxygen density increases... thats why CAI lo.
