Someone makes a kit for the sbd system to move the filter behind the headlight more for cooler air. It has shown to be beneficial.

Whatever air temperature is at air intake (before turbo), air will get very hot in the turbo compressor and later cooled in the intercooler. The temperature of air at the intake manifold will be the temperature after intercooler. I don't think ram intake or cold intake will make any difference as long as air intake is not restricting the air flow.

Intake are temps are logged by the stock ECU. Take a look and see what they are at full boost on a properly hot engine. Ever put your hands behind the radiator fan when the engine is hot? Would have to.be 50C (just a guess) but it's really hot. |

http://www.autospeed.com/cms/article...Maths&A=109789 Intercooler and compressor efficiencies are the most important factors. Cold air or ram intakes are not as important with FI applications. I wouldn't even bother with them unless the air intake is restricting the flow rate. You can try here to test the temperature variations http://www.stealth316.com/2-turbotemp.htm |

Higher intake temp = more hp input required for the compressor to achieve your boost setting, plus the temperature output increases nonlinearly (e.g. a 10 F increase in IAT means greater than 10 F increase in boosted air temp). It's not sensible to say it's trivial without noting the IATs.

Using: 14 PSI boost (what I run) 70% turbo and intercooler efficiency 20C ambient temp 50C engine bay temp Those calcs say 58C or 46C intake air temps depending on whether you source ambient or engine bay air. So you are right in that this 30C difference is only a 12C rise at the end, but it's still a 12C rise. |

^and that's ignoring the 6-7 hp that the compressor will require to compress that hotter air, which is completely separate from the power loss due to IAT rise post-intercooler

Hello all, I'm new to the forum. I wonder if something like this would be beneficial/practically functional? (the intake ram shield in the photo) Would it work better with the stock helmholtz resonators? or would it function better with those resonators removed? What are your intake cooling solutions? Thanks in advance for sharing your input & feedback. Last edited by DenDog220; 04-21-2020 at 06:50 AM. |

.Stock is a good solution. Nothing like blocking off your radiator to get cool air in.

That is for cooling. It directs all the air coming in through the bumper opening to the radiator and prevents it from "leaking" around it. https://www.counterspacegarage.com/a...r-intake-scoop
