ZZebes Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 (edited) it is more of a ****in restriction than a gain, god god people are we really talking performance and value in the same breath. that freakin thing may work as a pretty desk fan but there is no way in hell it works. PLEASE don't buy that crap you will hurt your motor more than help it. Read through it it is pure horse crap, "it forces cold air into your engine" cold air from a filter resting ontop of the intake and cylinder head, and it says it flows 500CFM my desk fan flows 800CFM so me thinks this is crap.

mungman Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 the theory behind it makes sense but it would only work up to a certain rpm before the engine would require more air than the fan would be able to provide therefore hindering it. it is like blowing into a vacuum cleaner when it is off then turning it on. completly uses above idling speed.

dcairns Posted May 29, 2007 Report Share Posted May 29, 2007 6 liters = .211888 cubic feet divide by two (4 stroke engines only breathes in every other revolution) =.10594 cubic feet per engine RPM so.... at 3000 RPM the engine flows 318 cfm at 5000 RPM the engine flows 530 cfm at 6000 RPM the engine flows 636 cfm That little fan cannot even keep up with the naturally aspirated flow of the engine, let alone provide an increase. Also, fans of that sort do not work when trying to compress air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
