dsgrntld187 Posted June 10, 2004 Report Posted June 10, 2004 I know some of you have seen what I'm talking about, but Summit Racing has these air intake kits for Mustangs that put a scoop under the front bumper. Would it be possible to mod one of those up to run in my Cutty? I think that would be a good idea, but maybe thats just me. -Spencer Quote
BIGBULS Posted June 10, 2004 Report Posted June 10, 2004 Don't bother............design yourself a proper fenderwell mounted CAI and you'll get just as much power without the penchant for scooping up bugs, sticks and everything else. Quote
dsgrntld187 Posted June 10, 2004 Author Report Posted June 10, 2004 Couldn't you use one of those DIY grill meshes and put it over it? Then run it to the bottom of the airbox? I don't have anything to make a CAI, and no one does them, so I don't know what I should do/get Quote
90TGP Posted June 10, 2004 Report Posted June 10, 2004 If you goto your hardware store, goto the gutter section and look for a downspout outlet. It'll look like the Mustang scoop. It's like 5-10 bucks, and I'm sure you could fab it up somehow. Here's a picture. It's the "Big Mouth" http://www.gutterworks.com/leafguards2.html Quote
BIGBULS Posted June 10, 2004 Report Posted June 10, 2004 What I'm getting at, is that you are getting NO extra benefit from all this ducting over what you would from a decent CAI............in fact, depending on how you fuck it up (routing and material), you may very well end up with a far smaller power gain than you would have....... Seriously...........it's not like you are getting some magical "ram air" effect (ram air is nothing but a marketting scheme anyway)............ Quote
