Cold air intake kits? do they work?
Do cold air intakes work?
Does size, make or brand name matter? Will I notice a difference in power, sound? or is that a myth? Does this save gas, or is that another myth? |
Re: Cold air intake kits? do they work?
No,
No, No, No, It is just a waiste of money.If you want"power" buy a muscle car...not a cold air intake.Put a type"R" sticker...it will do the trick! ;-) "stylesandsmiles" <oelias0546@rogers.com> wrote in message news:YI6dnUdFZebk5hrcRVn-rQ@rogers.com... > Do cold air intakes work? > Does size, make or brand name matter? > Will I notice a difference in power, sound? or is that a myth? > Does this save gas, or is that another myth? > > |

Re: Cold air intake kits? do they work?
yes they do make a difference, and do change the sound. They make a small
difference, but when you contiune to add more mods it becomes more noticable.

Re: Cold air intake kits? do they work?
I understand that this market place is trying to suck out as much money from
the consumer as they can. I was told it would only make a difference If I installed a larger exhaust system.

Re: Cold air intake kits? do they work?
I heard something like that too.More air in=needs more air out,makes
senses.Also they said something about computer chip? But still i think it is just more for the look and sounds...and money. P.S. By the way a own a 95 civic CX.

Re: Cold air intake kits? do they work?
OK kids....imagine an engine...ANY engine as an air pump with a little fuel
and spark thrown in to make power. If you open up the intake AND the exhaust, you will get more HP. You will also burn more fuel. Going with just an intake is NOT the way to hop up the performance. You also need a header, a performance cat, and a larger cat back system. If you balance the upgrades PROPERLY, you can get more HP. You can also get an adjustable timing gear to tweak the valve timing (for the professional or the highly knowledgeable) and squeeze a bit more out of an otherwise stock motor.
