Great video! I am really cheering you in the direction to test gold heat wrap - as you have mentioned before it will work, I just wonder how much in terms of actual horsepower or torque gains! Even if there are no measurable gains, if cooler mixture is detected, this is a win on it's own. Second to that - phenolic gaskets. There should be phenolic throttle body gaskets for Honda engines, right? One more step for dropping air temperatures. Third - exhaust heat wrap. Proven to work, but maybe no benefits on it's own, I wonder if added to the above mods will generate modest improvements? All three combined sound like a good way to lower engine bay temperatures and intake air temperatures. On a different topic - engine bay grounding. You have mentioned additional ground earth straps. How about throwing in something like D1 or HKS voltage stabilizer? Also on engines with upgraded ignition coil - adding a second ground wire from the coil negative to the engine. I wonder what you think on all those things and if you can test them, that would be awesome!

Loving the real world tests and appreciate the time put into them. If i look at the results of your last few videos is the conclusion simply that a cold air intake makes more power not necessarily because it has access to colder air (because once the car is moving there isnt really much of a difference versus the short ram)...but more to do with the length of the pipe itself? Your tests have proved on the dyno that a CAI makes more power but why have you a short ram on your own car? Just curious! My engine builder and tuner also previously said that in his experience the b series at least always liked an intake a little more on the longer side than a SRI

@@SRDmotorsports you have made this all so clear to understand in just a few videos! It is amazing how much false information is out there from people who have no proof, no tests etc. and just have this idea in their mind planted there by the advertising and marketing departments from the companies trying to sell the parts 😅 But that is business at the end of the day and the name of the game is to sell parts and earn revenue! From your tests I guess what is also important then is to try keep the actual intake hardware, like the intake pipe and intake manifold, as cool as possible. If you are stationary at the start of the quarter mile strip and your engine bay temps are hotter than ambient temperature, then the aluminium intake pipe and the manifold itself could suffer from that heat transfer. When the lights go out and you accelerate, your tests have proven the engine bay temps will drop very quickly but the actual aluminium could retain some heat for longer, which may warm the air travelling through the system to the intake ports...not sure if the air is even in the intake pipe or runners for long enough to suffer from that, but just brainstorming....sorry for the essays!

If I were close to you I'd definitely offer my ported S2 Ultra Race up for testing but I'm all the way in Ireland so that would be tough haha One topic I also done a lot of searching for and have tried to find some information and comparisons for is testing intake pipe diameters...like a 3inch vs 3.5 inch vs a tapered design may be even going from a 3.5inch down to a 3inch etc. But again at least for the b series anything more than 3 inch is hard to find and would likely require some custom fabrication of various intake arms to complete. I have settled on testing a 3.5inch arm on my 2.1L B series and will be going for a longer intake arm based on your findings...so thanks for that ha! If money allows I will try get a short arm vs long arm test and see if the results align with what you have tested

@ that’s one thing that’s on my mind too… on atleast 3k rpm the airspeed may not be slow enough to deal with thermal transfer/time but it won’t hurt to keep the surface cold (pipes) at the strip, it’s maybe why we notice some prefer to push the car to the start line or tow it with an atv vs drive it there…part of the reason might be the heat generated when that slow… interesting indeed I’m lucky to make a video in sequence without any other project vid disrupting it…maybe that’s why it was quick for u to get it all along I mean… imagine if the vid was months apart?

You should measure the intake temperature from the sensor itself; that would be best to see what the car ECU receives. I have done this with Hondash, and in traffic jams, the stock airbox and the short ram differ by about 5 degrees. However, once you get moving, the stock box cools the air faster. Otherwise, great testing, and I love your channel!
@SRDmotorsports3 күн бұрын
but the whole test was because on the dyno it’s at stand still and they always say close the hood to be realistic due to heat soak… the test was to show that their notion is correct on a “parked car” only I agree with your findings on the short ram being only 5 degrees apart on stand still and the stock airbox because it’s getting air from under the headlight area behind the bumper it gets cooler and denser air due to vehicle motion in the near future we would re do this test but this time on a highway just to be safe 😂
@Kasev3093 күн бұрын
I think for dyno tuning, it’s best to do it with the hood open to achieve maximum power from colder air. This way, when you drive the car on cold mornings, you can get maximum performance. Once it heat soaks, there’s nothing you can do. That’s just my opinion; I may be wrong.

@SRDmotorsports it's not like criticising or anything but i've done some testing on my own and the coldest spot of the whole engine bay is next to the battery. It's like an old ghetto trick to throw the IAT sensor behind the battery to measure cold and run a bit richer and not pulling ignition off. At the same time at 18 degrees ambient i'm reading 38-43 degrees Intake temperature from the ECU with the stock air box. So the right thing is the logical thing to measure directly Infront of the filter from where the engine is feeding not from the back.

I have some discussions about that 🤣 nice channel BTW! 🙂 A bit long sorry but it's my experience with VE A lot of people asking me to put my car on a dyno but i don"t want 🤣 It's a swift sport 1.4 16v VVT turbo. Stock it's about 155hp (given for 140) with 80% VE at 6000rpm (in the ecu VE table) and 0.54b (7.8psi), and still stock map 85% VE at max torque with 1bar (14.5psi) almost stock parts on it. I just put a air filter, forge blow of valve red spring, to keep it closed because others a letting pass through some air, just a bit but bad for VE! I bypassed the solenoid of the BOV to not let the ECU open it, performance sparkplugs, gain around 10hp, i never seen that before... and a racechip box gts... This is just to give the informations, you will understand why 🙂 oh and a pedalbox, very usefull on rolling race! crasy! In the swift community, a lot of people are going in stage 3 to reach 230-240 to 250hp with a lot of parts, turbo, full exhaust, intake, sparkplugs, bov, intercooler, injectors,... all possible, and they are between 1.2b and 1.4bar at 6000rpm, and a few thousand of euros/dollars... some at 12000 euros 🤣 and knowing that the engine efficiency is between 30% and 36% and these engines... Normally a stage 1 and stage 2 are given between 175 and 195 hp. Racechip is giving on they site for that model 167hp. Ok now, what is so interresting with my modest and intelligents modifications 🤣 i'm joking a bit With my modifications and the stock tune at 1.54bar (7.8psi) i read with torque pro app and other tested, i have 93% VE at 6000rpm, it gives around 180hp, meseared with perfexpert and torque pro and with the racechip box settings 7, 102% VE and 1bar (14.5psi) at 6000rpm. I have calculated with at least 30% engine efficiency : 83.786 (Engine Capactity Cubic Inches) * 1.30 (engine efficiency) * 1.3557 (torque) / 9.81 (convert to mkg)= 15.05mkg 15.05 mkg * 1.02 (102% VE) = 15.35mkg 15.35 mkg * 2 bar (atmospheric pressure and turbo pressure) = 30.7mkg 30.7 * 6000 rpm / 716 = 257HP ... i try to tell people that th stock turbo is not to small and gives more than 100% VE at 14.5psi at 6000rpm but people are not listening, they like to spend money... oh just to know my 100 to 200 km/h is around 11 And on torque, in low rpm 125% VE adding 1.3bar (18,85psi), then at max torque around 4000rpm, 110% VE adding 1.35bar (19,58psi). So i don't need to be an astronaut to understand that i am fare from 167hp given by racechip. And talking the person in stage 3. The same ingine in natural aspirated, with 100% and 30% engine efficiency it gives 126hp. So putting 1.3bar to take the half between 1.2bar and 1.4bar. 126 hp * 1.3bar with 100% VE must give around 289hp. So to go down from 289hp to 250hp they must have a VE around 86%. So big turbo, big intercooler, free exhaust system, all of that to have bad VE values I measured some other cars same way, perfexpert, torque pro, dynolicious in the past, and with VE calculating, every time result are in accord. On my previous Opel Zafira 2L turbo OPC tuned stage 2, i had to change my exhaust system because it was broken. I go from 36mm to 76mm, i lost 30nm. Putting some parts can sometimes affect negatively VE, it's not everytime giving power and torque 😀

@@SRDmotorsports well I hate to tell you this but 6 years of ice racing championships in my family and it's hard to say the engine bay don't get warm cause even at below freezing temps the engine bay is still hot enough to melt snow and ice off the hood and keep the hood warm to the touch. See for your theory to work the cooler outside air needs to flow into and out of the engine bay as fast as it went in . But here's the problem it can't to do that there's this big hot restriction in the way called a motor. And lets not forget big air dams behind it, above it and on both sides called a firewall a hood and left and right fenders. And where do you think the heat from the rad goes that's infront of your short ram intake? That's right in goes back into the engine bay heating that cooler air up as it travels through the rads cooling fins to cool the rad and the engines coolent down. That's why most cold air intakes get thier air from the front as close to the cooler air coming I to the engine as they can or from down low closer to the cooler air at the bottom of the engine bay or directly from a hole or scoop in the hood.

@ alright I hear you and don’t question your ice racing experience for sure… at max 40km/h we see no more than 13deg difference on a stock car ambient temp and engine bay temp… it’s not my theory it’ has been tested way back in 2006-2008 by someone in the US and then we did too in 2008 just never got to take vids of it so gotta re do some now…

@@SRDmotorsports now its a MAX of 40km/h before you said it was anything over 40km/h. But now it's a MAX of 40km/h so these mods will be good for the little old ladies that won't go over 40km/h now? Then why bother with these mods if it only works properly till a max of 40km/h ?
@SRDmotorsports9 күн бұрын
@@RAPTORB26 my point with the max 40kmh is obviously faster means more equal than 13deg difference if that makes sense and yes as soon as the car is at a stop/stand still in less than 3minutes the temperature difference escalates to above 25deg hotter than ambient probably could go more if it was driven harder = here is where I hear you when u said it melts ice yeah

@ true, just the more options does tend to confuse more but I agree Though I didn’t get to Kart as much as a kid but was always into “racing” something and at the very least on RC road cars and off road trucks the r/p does change a lot and is quite important. In our case that’s the final drive atleast 😎

Great video next time you should close the hood when you’re testing the intakes because of real world driving usually short rams, lose horsepower from all the heat it’s soaking up in the engine bay.cold air intakes gain torque down low but lose horsepower up top and closed air intakes like the factory one are usually the best

@@hardtailrider7172 like I said in a post at the pagans to some comments here it’s been well known , at above 40km/h because our bumper grill is right where high pressure is, it quickly gets the engine bay temp “close” to ambient temp… On the dyno it’s a stand still so to replicate a closed hood dyno run in the real world? People should tape up closed the bumper grill to simulate the dyno at “ Stand still “ since it’s commonly said… We are working on a video talking about ambient temp and engine bay temp At stand still and at “rolling” to show temp ranges Just need a bit of time had to order digital temp gauges that could work for our test 😎 who knows… it might be a mythbuster Just like “SRI gives more top end vs CAI” 😎 ordered the sensors btw so just waiting on shipping
