just an idea

So essentially you're trying to put more pressure on the air going in the air tube? They make things for that... superchargers.

yeah and superchargers are not $50

Honestly, you are wasting your time. Instead of spending money on this little fan deal, just put that money away and save for a tune.

can you explain why it is a waste of time? have you tried it or know anyone who has? any facts to why this would not work would be great as opposed to just stating a possible opinion. i plan on getting a bb tune anyway ( i want all mods before i tune so i only have dont have to keep re-tuning as i ad mods). and $30-$50 bucks is not a great amount to spend on what could be a great little easy CHEAP mod that could produce a real gain, when we alreaday spend a grip on everything else.



does the maf measure CFM? if so i could see actual resluts from trying this out.

When you're going at speed, that air in your engine compartment is moving around anyways, it's not going to be as hot as when you lift the lid.

good point stevek. so hot air not an isue at speed, but what if i can actually create a small amount of forced air induction. i am giong to give it a shot. even a little makes a difference i would think and for 30-50 bucks i will take it. as opposed to a 3000-5000 dollar supercharger which you will get more but pay alot to get it.

I think the MAF is measured in grams/sec or something like that

give it a shot if you want but i really dont think you will see any difference....but i guess it wont be a restriction at all

make it...patent it...say it does cool shit like 3mpg more 20+ hp...might be the next million dollar truck mod...do it...do it

maf is measure in grams/sec or lbs/min
