Ok think about it, the cold air induction works by ramming more air into the supercharger to create MORE psi giving it MORE acceleration and MORE HP

 

We need a test (hint hint)

 

Sounds fun LOL

 

Well, no, that is a common misconception.

Cold Air Induction and Ram Air are two different things.

 

You're not going to get more boost from a cold air intake - period.

Anyway, I didn't know any Cobras existed without at least an upper pulley

 

Do you have a problem with your ignition switch or have you lost the key? Or do you use the key too? If the ignition switch is bypassed then anyone can start your Stang without a key! But give me 3' of wire and I can start it too without a key! It's good to see someone your age that's willing to mod and drive a classic Mustang. Have you heard of Clifford performance? They specialize in 6 cylinders. kennyg

 

Are you sure about that, whats the difference between them?

 

I have no problem with the ignition. You have to have the key to start it. I haven't bypassed the ignition switch yet. I haven't heard of that company before, only stovebolt.



Ram air forces air into he intake. Cold Air doesn't.

 

Are you planning on bypassing the ignition though, or just keeping it like it is?

 

I have not mayde that decision yet.

 

Well, yes, I am sure.

Cold Air Intake allows for the induction of air that is cooler than collecting air from under the hood. Colder air contains more oxygen (more dense) which is one of the components of combustion. Increase oxygen, increase work (read work = horsepower).

Ram Air is literally ramming air into the intake. This is usually done with those very large scoops that you see on race cars. Even then, Ram Air does not start to become functional until ~70MPH.

Now, another physics lesson would deal with cowl induction and using the low pressure area at the cowl area to "inject" air into the intake.

If you look at most "Ram Air" systems (like the 69 GTO Judge and 69 Buick GS400 Stage I and the 72 GS455 I used to have), these are nothing more than cold air intakes. There is no ramming effect going on. Look at the airflow over a hood and you will see what I mean.

 

Yeah okay, that makes since, my bad.

 

Where do your 420/420 numbers come from, wild guesses or dyno?

 

hey i like the pushbuton on the oldskool ride. the dude that said ram air and cold ari are diffferent is on crack. if you put the cold air up near the front grill it will act just like ram air. that's how i have it on my Stang.

 

dude if it werent ramair then the sticker woldnt say 'ramair'. you think you know more than the car companys? sheesh

 

Uh, no.
It does not.
Please show empirical data.

 

*grins*
You are right.
That neat little pull button must have had the wrong sticker.

 

well whats the differense then?

 

This

 

Oh boy. I'm staying out of this one.
