Re: intake manifolds
Rob has improved on my crossover manifolds and they look great.
GET THIS; THEY REDUCE YOUR BOOST AND THAT IS A GOOD THING.
Because the valves have a bigger flow, the supercharger has less resistance and the static boost N U M B E R falls, the air flow and power go up but the static boost shows to be lower. This is hard to accept but the flow into the engine draws more intake charge, reducing the BACKUP which allows more air to fill the cylinders.
Its like having two hoses on a faucet, the second hose reduces the water pressure because the water is flowing more FREELY due to less restriction. I have not gotten dyno issues to show the numbers as a local mustang shop wont run my car any more, seems the numbers were dissapointly good for a 6 cylinder non ford car.
Remember how the dual intake I had developed reduced restriction and found 25 horse power below 2500 RPM. Same thinking, how do you get more air charge into you cars (HEAT) engine? !!!
Enjoy, Woody
Oh by the way lower boost pressures is less load (LOSS) to the engine and lower inlet charge temperature too.
