I've got an ecotek valve fitted already that does a similar thing and creates turbulance in the airbox.

Is it worth adding a fan as well or would that be a waste of my ecotek valve?

 

[khguan]

well i dun think so... dat ecotek thing is soemthing like microcompressor... it let more air into de engine...

then de air twister we DIY is to spin de air while our engine suck in air...

 

[markhammill]

Oh well, I trimmed the fan ok but broke it putting it in, so that makes the decision for me :unsure:

 

[gogsard]

i have doubt to do this DIY .. afraid the fan will break lose into my throtel ..

 

[khguan]

dun worry bout de fan blades breaking... for my car.. i use 2 twisters... so far so good!!

when u install it.. just make sure dat they r fitted properly..not too tight n not too loose.. so dat it wun move.. use some double sided tape with foam to stick beside de blades to secure them....

 

[wfhan]

me 2 use it for over 6 months already, fan blade still intake,
never break. :)

Hey guys i DIY this, keke sorry for bringing up old topics. Here is the pic!

When i first install this , which i dono installed correct or not,my car's induction sound (air sucking sound vroommmm)sounds louder, dono y, anyone care to explain? The car is more smoother now compare to last time, dono its physiological or what! Should i DIY a second one? if i do second one where should i put it? From the pictures u can see im using OEM air box wira efi!

 

[ocphangaz]

i DIY on using aircond blower fans... those squirel cage types.. i'm using K&N ufo type airfilter.

Usually ppl install after the filter element! Check where is ur filter and install right after it! /good

 

[NewVi]

thx bro...will look further in the air box :_:

 

[wfhan]

wow. 2 yrs topic still can bring up to discuss.. not bad. sweet!.

just to update, took out my 'air twister', not using it anymore,
considering the speed of the air flow going into the air ram,
i reckon it won't create a so call effective 'twist', but instead
it will create turbulence and mix the air (if that's what this diy item intend to do)

 

[kob3bryant]

i think the logic is the same as the design apply to center bullet.to make the air move faster
