dddd Member 16 Member For: 22y 1m 12d Posted 25/03/03 08:55 PM Share Posted 25/03/03 08:55 PM "Anyway, what was surprising was seeing how much extra power was made by lifting the top of the air filter up... a Manual I think PSI04L's, peaked at 201kw, and when the air box lid was lifted up made 206kw. A 5kW increase!!! I think in the end, with a pod filter it increased to 204kW?? I'm sure more will be said about this."This is very interesting. When the test was performed, was the air filter still attached to the upper half of the air box? In other words I'm trying to determine whether the 5 kw increase was due to the combination of a lack of an air filter and a restrictive air box or just the lack of a restrictive air box alone.

This gave about a 5kW increase, and the pod filter gave about a 4kW increase. So I would say that it is a combination of both the air box and the filter (But probably more the air box, as the filter seems to be quite light, and probably fairly free flowing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not really sure on how to explain it but PSI40L attached some sorth of plug around the air intake area, not really sure to explain properly. PSI40L is our specialised mechanic as he proved on the Dyno Day and should be able to explain in more detail. He also explained on a previous post.PSI40L, the car still sounds great mate. All us guys and gals should catchh up soon and go for a drive somewhere and have a BBQ, fishing etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjs Donating Members 525 Member For: 21y 11m 25d Location: Sydney Posted 26/03/03 08:50 PM Share Posted 26/03/03 08:50 PM Good stuff Robert, I guess by the sounds of it that fishing and a BBQ is pretty much the go. As all you guys know I'm all hopeless for directions, but I am available on Sundays. Warragamba sounds good, but there is no fishing places around there. Maybe we can oraganise a separate event or do the fising later in the day or early in the morning. Whichever, to meet up with guys again give me any time and I'll be there. Any others in this Forum interested????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
