Maybe if he had some empirical data like dyno sheets (not the best), datalogs or track times then I’d take it seriously.
Bottom line, it’s been proven open filter cai’s will draw in warmer air thus pulling timing and limiting power. It’s science not witchcraft, it can be proven so if everyone else is wrong then by all means op prove it.
And Juice you are correct however most cai’s also have a larger maf housing increasing the volume of air. This can still be offset by increased intake charge temps.
Due to the executive order killing the pipeline I think he needs to use vaginal secretions to lubricate his crankcase instead of synthetic oil because the semen of angels is too expensive and Dr Fauci has not approved a plan for Kamala to wear a mask when harvesting said semen from Trump...
How’s that?
1. There's no doubt that a CAI & tune produces HP/TQ gains on the dyno, but most of the gains come from the tune. The stock tune on the '05-'09 GT is very conservative (especially on early '05 models) and you can easily find as much as 20rwhp just from a 93 octane tune alone.
2. Dyno runs are usually performed with the hood open so even an unshielded conical air filter would breathe in ambient air. In the real world, a "CAI" without a heatshield would behave like a hot air intake, breathing air as hot as 160*F. Therefore it's important to isolate a conical air filter from hot underhood air by installing a properly sealing heatshield. Otherwise each 11*F increase in IAT results in a 1% HP loss just from the reduced air density alone, with further potential losses as the ECU reduces spark advance to prevent knock.
3. No tune intakes are a waste of money unless you really only want some underhood eye candy to show off to your buddies.
4. A CAI with a larger diameter intake tube will definitely need a revised MAF transfer curve, but it'll also support higher HP levels as you add more performance mods. You're basically allowing the engine to breathe through a bigger straw.
I nearly pissed in my pants when I read that.
Lets kick the 10th guy's ass...
