Drax240z Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 Let us know if you see any performance gains at all. I remember discussions about this type of setup on zcar.com years ago and there was very little gain if any. I would think that its worth it, but I haven't tried.

BQR280Z Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 Looks very clean... nicely done! Now if you can get a clean looking elbow that will let you go through the hole in the radiator support, you can mount the K&N in front.

Bob_H Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 I can't for the life of me think of why you would put a LT1 airfoil in the intake? There is no need to split the airflow or smooth it into two passages as in the LT1. All I can think of is you had it lying around and figured it would aid in the airflow as it does for the LT1. In my opinion, all it is doing is taking up space that air could flow through, i.e. limiting your potential gains, not helping them. I would suggest removing it, taking some tubing,(even dryer tubing), and running it forward through the radiator support to the fresh air in front of it. -Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katman Posted August 13, 2003 Share Posted August 13, 2003 The sonic problems you'll have with an enclosed 3" tube can range from no symptoms (and no performance gain) to a car that won't run over 4000 rpm (and no performance gain). Nice work but I'd bet 5 bucks you'll be worse off than with a properly ventilated stock air cleaner with a K&N, cold air or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
