Dual air intake?

[ndeuro_]

anyone made dual air intake for their car? like sri and cai combined? i did it yesterday. pics up soon

you mean like this :p

hehe custom made... i should start producing them and selling them on here as a package along with an RBC! :D

can you notice any difference?

i would have thought that would reduce suction power.
But let us know how it goes, plus the euro doesn't have much space to do much as the battery would be in the way.

is the 2nd suction area where the straight silicone coupler is? similiar to the AEM intake?

[ndeuro_]

yeah theres abit of different in response n gain. great take off. huge diff in sound when stationary. but not much when moving...

as for space. i took out the resonator and that intake box under the battery too. so my car is 2kg lighter :D. ill go take pix now actually should be up in 10mins

[ndeuro_]

ok here are the pics. fcuk its freezing outside

i also chucked this between my sri filter and the throttle body

That fan thing will restrict air flow, not improve it. I'd take it out.

[ndeuro_]

meh wouldnt hurt plus i already bought it. sounds nice though =]

Sound comes from the pod, not that power-robbing fin thing.

[ndeuro_]

its called a turbine =]

[Crapdaz]

the turbine restricts air flow, and causes it to produce a different sound as you have noticed.

[ndeuro_]

lol but the turbine was already in there before i modified the intake

[Crapdaz]

rofl, if you can't take it out then stick wit it, but take a photo, and where is the SRI suction point ?

[quenjose]

Air would naturally take the path of least resistance... unless its been forced NOT to.
In this case, i dont see how the pod furthest away from the engine would be of any use since the the vacumn force would act mostly if not entirely on the filter closest to the TB.

that was my thought at first too.

would reduce the suction force from one side, and create a bit more turbulence.

[ndeuro_]

um i have two suction points. ones in the engine bay and the other is behind my front bumper where the oem resonator used to be

[D R U]

I dont think there's any suction at the filter down in the front bar, as that pipe is not sealed with the intake.

Essentially you've put an air filter over the cold air duct for your SRI.
I think that would slow the air down going into you're SRI.

To achieve what you're intending, you're SRI and CAI need to ne joined together with a "Y" piece so there's suction from both ends.

It's an interesting idea, but there isnt much room in the engine to do it, unless you move your battery.

[quenjose]

With a "Y" join, you could theoretically fab a crude butterfly style valve that could be actuated with a throttle linkage cable...
Might be a pointless exercise though.
Just a thought.

[Crapdaz]

might as well force induct and you can have to takes already.

[aaronng]

Does it physically spin or is powered by an external source? If it doesn't spin, then it is not called a turbine but instead called an obstruction. :)

Yeah, the engine would suck in through the first pod closest to the engine, until it started to cake up with dirt or if he maxed out the flowrate of the pod (not likely since these pods can flow enough to feed a large turbo engine). Then only would flow from the pod near the bumper become substantial. On the plus side, he will get longer filter life.

[Crapdaz]

the term turbine should be wind powered > wind generator.

as you need the wind to run it if there is no wind you will have just an obstruction.
anyhow that turbine imo is an obstruction either way.

Cause if you are constantly in motion, then the turbine may help but because of start/stop traffic your more likely just containing an obstruction to your take.

Additional you said that the turbine is situated just before the TB so hence you blocking both sides of air coming in from A your CAI sect, B your SRI unless your SRI.

If you had the turbine in the CAI section only it would could prob run better.

Please diss me if i am wrong but that is my thought.

Id love to see this setup on the dyno, I guarantee it's producing less power than the standard filter box. Why stop at two pods man? why not 4? or 8? lol.

[aaronng]

ndeuro_, are you in Sydney? Would be good to get your setup dyno'd at the next dyno day.

[Crapdaz]

nah his melbournian.

[akina]

even given if its sucking air at both ends and no turbine thing, wouldnt it stuff up the air flow at the SRI. and given this setup u might as well get a pod that has an open at the top as well.

He already has the setup. So no point buying another pod which has two openings, which won't be any better than what he has now.

[JunYu]

looks ridiculous to me.

I'm curious as to what sound it produces though.

[hooyn]

LOL this is funny.
wannabe turboz ftl.

[Crapdaz]

ndeuro basically dyno your car with SRI, then use that SRI/CAI combo

and compare the performance.

[ndeuro_]

how much dino cost? if its not too much then ill do it

[Crapdaz]

like $50-60/run.
depending where you go.

[felixd]

its called a TURBINE oh i just knew dat !!!! LOL ROFL why dont they create a spit fire intake that can spit some flame out FIRE+NOISE = BIG POWER!!! LOL PURE FAST N FURIOUSS STYLE

Fire + Engine = no good :thumbdwn:

lol just get the backfire exhaust and play real life initial D.

My engine is better than yours then. I have up to 7000 controlled explosions happening in my engine every minute!

[Euro08Jaz]

lol as soon as i saw the turbine thing i knew no one would take this seriously. but props to you my friend at least your trying something different, i would have thought the biggest problem would be a loss of vacuum with an 2 entry points in the hose. if it was 2 separate hoses it would make a bit more sense.

I would leave it as SRI with cold air ducting. ;)

Im going to supercharge my car!

They have one for you ndeuro_

[LXRY]

power up the turbine with battery and use it as a fan for summer to keep you cool :)

Never seen or heard of this, is it really a supercharger ?

[aaronng]

Never seen or heard of this, is it really a supercharger ?

Nah, it is a ripoff and actually obstructs airflow at high RPM.

[Type R Positive]

lmao

[felixd]

lol wad if we weld one of those on the exhaust system that would produce some POWAHHHHH n loud superchaager sound :D

[DLO01]

So let me get this right. You have one filter at the end of that chrome pipe which is connected to the Intake? And you have that other filter on the blue pipe which is butted up against the 1st filter and is basically just sitting there?

[Min988]

hahaha another one... with a super hyper ultra +20hp turbo fan.....

[mrwillz]

ask beeza to post his setup
its gangstah!
