Drilling holes in the box will increase air access but it will also destroy the ram effect from the original air intake!
@backyardbunkybuilds7461
@backyardbunkybuilds7461 2 ай бұрын
The ram effect of the intake is nominal at best ....considering the car made 209.4rwkw with this mod (and exhaust) plus the car showed drastically improved fuel economy means its working. The factory intake is all about noise reduction not power.
@martintaper7997
@martintaper7997 2 ай бұрын
@@backyardbunkybuilds7461 The exhaust mods would be responsible for that gain. The holes would mean you take in more hot engine bay air. A better way to do this is make a larger air feed tube, or even more than one tube and get it taking air directly from the front of the car unimpeded and with some large mesh at the entry to stop objects entering. You then get cooler denser air with a stronger ram effect. I'm a mechanical engineer - try it and get back to me.

Can I just keep the stock hoses, delete the restrictor and making holes on the box for better airflow ?
@backyardbunkybuilds7461
@backyardbunkybuilds7461 6 ай бұрын
Yes that will work and probably perform just as well. The stock intake pipe has a muffling system to reduce intake noise but it shouldn't restrict flow. So you should get the increase in flow without the noise. 👍🏻

14.0 is bloody great. That mph though atleast shows good low 13 potential. 1st to 2nd gearshift, sticky fat tyres, and some cooler temps should help. What size stall is it running still? Id imagine a 3500rpm stall would be near optimal depending where peak torque is produced.

Love the videos! Given me heap of backyard enginering ideas to do to my G6E, 100% Wangara Auto Trans are the best! They saved me arse when i got a shonky transcooler installed by BPT Motorsport and had a ZF gearbox that leaked all of the transmisson oil out of the seal, Toke it back twice and still leaking, They told me to drive it to there workshop with no oil in the trans lol, I rang Wangara auto trans, Told them the story and he got me in a week earlier because of the issue and fitted a proper rubber gasket and steel pan to the transmisson, Super Job and save me big time as BPT didn't even want to sort out the issue after i dropped $1600 on custom transcooler install and transmission service!!!! Keep up the good work and great advice!!!

Someone for the life of me please tell me how hes got a 12mm breather on there. Got myself a K&N 3/8-1/2in (9.5-12.7mm) filter and cant see how its even possible that it fits on there. I am aware that its likely to be more difficult as its a universal filter with a size range, but looks like it needs to be at least double the size. Any help appreciated, cheers.
