    Don’t forget that there are 2 types of intercoolers, “air to air” and “water to air”.
    Basically “air to air” is the type you see sticking out of the front end and are usually quite thick and works like the name suggests, the “intake air” passes through the intercooler and gets cooled down by air going through it.
    Water to air intercoolers are usually a slightly more complicated set up, basically you use water to cool down the “intake air”, most set ups use a “heat exchanger” (a radiator of sorts) which is “plumed in” (or connected) to the intercooler. But water to air can also be a “ice box” set up.
    Water to air is a pretty efficient system and usually takes up less room than a air to air set up.

      However not all engine bays have the space for thick charge air piping and big air to air intercooler which has to be mounted where it get a sufficient amount of air flow, but also preferably not too far from the Turbo. In that aspect water to air is far superior as coolant hoses are usually thinner and easier to plum up, plus the heat exchanger tends to be thinner than air to air intercoolers.
      Both have their pros and cons, both are useful.

      im pretty sure its just engine response. its not crazy though, youre not getting new power i guess you can say. this got proven to me by doing engine compression testing (for NA high compression will definitely squeeze out more power that the engine could've had brand new). a small engine does actually struggle more to get air with a stock box intake.

    0:55 Throttle response, while not being extra power, is a very, very valid thing to want in your build. Like, an NA with poor throttle response can straight up be worse than a turbo'd engine with really good throttle response.
    3:30 Pretty much every car already has a cold air intake. A true cold air intake is giving it access to proper airflow, like by positioning it behind a bumper or headlight vent. Or out your hood. Or any other alternative you can think of, the sky is the limit.

      @PERTEKofficial Рік тому +4

      Very valid. If the car makes me feel like it’s fun to drive, that’s all I need. The cold air intake thing seemed weird to me too because most cars take in air from the bumper or the hood. My current civic came with a “cold air intake” which pulls air in from the engine bay, which isn’t cold. And the hood is stock. I don’t see how that provides any benefit over a stock air intake, which takes in colder air from outside the engine bay

    I lowered my Mercedes 190E couple of years ago with Eibach pro kit springs.
    Everything was fine, apart from the fact there was this weird creeking noise when I turned the wheel while parking. After checking everything and replacing every part there was to replace with suspension and steering, finally I found the issue.
    The steering drop link bushings on the passenger side became stressed when I lowered the springs, since this cause all the steering angles to change.

And as for the CAI they can actually increase horsepower quite a bit depending on how your original air filter and intake tubes are designed! A lot of OEM air intake pipes are restricted and baffled to help decrease sound!

Also the "electric supercharger" that was shown is actually a loss of like 4 HP on a small stock N/A 2.0L, i think. I do remember it was an early 2000s Eclipse.

    To be entirely honest coming from my experience with CAI's(cold air intakes), they add at least something. When i added my intake to my 97' Camry, it actually gained literally 3 hp, 1 mpg, and better response on the lower end torque. Other than that, I wouldn't advise slapping a CAI on a newer vehicle as the way their air box is designed is typicially better than the aftermarkets UNLESS you plan on going with more mods as Bladed explained in the video.

    I want to add one more information about straight pipe vs h or x pipes. H or x pipes are also designed to keep lower pression on the exhaust valves because of the faster air flow escaping from the combustion chamber. In this way the low pression that generates near the exhaust valves sucks up the dirty air after the combustion and it increases efficiency (cleaner engine, lower gasoline consumption, faster revs and actual more power). Straight pipes make the engine less efficient and in some cases less powerful because the air coming out the exhaust has to deal with atmospheric pressure so the pistons have to push harder to make the air escape the engine. Also phisically speaking loudness = waste of energy. Sound is energy converted in kinetic energy that moves air particles (sound). So if an exhaust is loud it means that some energy is wasted to make the car louder (improper airflow, more vibrations transmitted to the exhaust pipe, higher temperatures and less reliability)

    Both intakes and exhaust have pulses going through them, that run in both directions. The diameter and length are both part of tuning for best movement of air and exhaust at a specific rpm range. A well engineered engine mod will include changes in many places, from intake to camshafts to exhaust to heads, and the list goes on. This is why those spacers can help with low end power, but in return, you lose some top end. It's all a give and take, and factory engines are designed pretty well, given that they need to remain within emissions and noise specs.

    I only have an issue with the last statement - rep vs name brand wheels. I personally run a set of rep wheels on an Evo X and they are just great, never had an issue with them. That being said, I don't recommend going for cheap wheels that look like something they are not, because the set I bought is actually a high quality replica, which was a decision made mostly made from a budget perspective (they were not dirt cheap, cost like 400 buckaroos a wheel, maybe more). My reasoning was, that we don't really have a lot of good looking wheel models from certified manufacturers (EU FTW) and I couldn't get my hands on anything that I would consider a good fitment - most TUV certified brands have bad offset and width choices (imagine an Evo X on 18x8,5 ET 45 wheels)... I can't imagine what would happen, if I bought a set of rep wheels from the US hearing a lot of horror stories about them going ballistic. My final thought is never cheap out on anything that contacts the road, be it suspension, wheels or tires, but don't get pressured into buying "the real deal of wheel" if it's not in your budget... use your common sense and go for something that looks nice while providing adequate strength and durability for your intended purpose.

    I agree with you for most things but If you remove the catalytic converted and attach a pipe with a larger diameter instead of a regular exhaust pipe you gain for sure more power as long as the exhaust valves for the zylinder head and the exhaust manifold allow a higher gas flow through a straight pipe. If the exhaust valves, the zylinderhead or the exhaust manifold are restircting the exhauste flow then even the largest exhaust pipe want bring you anything.
    This is simply because the piston needs less force to push the burnt fuel out of the burning chamber when the exhaust has to be pushed through a smalller pipe which creates backpressure.
    The lower force needed to push the exhaust out of the chamber is the torque you gain by this method.
    In a extremly simplified model you can use the law of Hagen-Poiseuille which state that the pressure decreases to the power of 4 by the increase of the radius by the factor 2.
    Therefore, the larger the diameter of the exhauste the lower the backpressure. This means that the piston does not have to apply such a high force to get ride of the exhaust and overall you gain more torque.
    Furthermore, less exhaust is left in the burning chamber and a higher amount of oxygen is in the burning chamber and therefore more gas can be burnt which increases the power even more.
    This is also the reason why supercars have mostly a exhaust with a flap that opens as soon as you want the full power of the car.
    You can easily try this at home. Take a bottle filled with water then make a 1 mm diameter hole in the lid. Now push the water out and stop the time.
    Now you repeat this but instead of a 1 mm diameter you now emove the lid and push the water out of the bottle. The bottle without lid will empty much faster than the one with the small hole in the lid. This is also true for the exhaust even thoug the behaviour is not excatly to the the law of Hagen-Poiseuille because these are gases and the formula must be modified for this.

    A short ram intake can be useful depending on application. More air is always better. Think of a sbc literally flipping top of air cleaner over making poor man’s cold air intake increases hp a measurable amount like 5hp and that’s in same spot it was same temp air as before just more.

      Again it depends on what car it is. More air is only better if that's the bottleneck in the system. But just because there is "more air" doesn't mean that a car has the fueling or mapping to take advantage of it. Also the bottleneck could very well just be in the head anyway.
      So some cars pick up some hp from it and some see worse performance compared to stock.

      @@christopherjohnston6343 pretty much every newer vehicle’s computer will make necessary adjustments for a simple air intake alone. And no vehicle after 1996 odb 2 requirement will not have enough fueling to handle the extra air from just an intake it’s not like your adding boost lmao. Stock heads will always be a bottle neck eventually along with everything else in the engine will be. It’s rare for more air to atomize fuel more being a bad thing and when there’s the few situations where there’s no gains or a loss it’s so small it’s within +\- averages you would see normally anyways if you dyno the vehicle 10 times in a row. And any engine that’s carbureted it’s going to be better 99% of the time.

    Wouldn't you need a 'V' engine to have an X-pipe tho? I'm not fan of straightpipes either, but good luck putting an X-pipe on an inline or a rotary.

      Of course you can't, but that's not the point. The point is, in general, X/H piping is A) safer b)mo powa babeh c) better for your vehicle.
      If you have an inline, just get a better exhaust system.

      Some inline engines, mostly 6 bangers, use two separate headers (one for the first three, and another for the last three cylinders), these can run x/h pipes, true duals, etc.

    Straight pipes actually work on turbocharged cars…the best exhaust for a turbocharged car is no exhaust.

    • @domantas8185
      @domantas8185 2 роки тому +1

      Ehhhhh, the engine being turbo'd won't really make a straight pipe the better choice, you should think of it more as exhaust size dependence on how much gas you're pushing out of the engine. There is a way to make a muffler system that costs you 0HP while being reasonably quiet. And on no exhaust, while yeah you can have no exhaust and see gains over your average exhaust system, an actual well designed exhaust system won't hurt, plus it's not a very good idea to have hot powerful exhaust gasses go under your car for aero reasons.

    Just a note, while eBay desk fans claiming to be electric superchargers don't do anything, electric superchargers (with 15-20hp electric motors and 48V+ electrical systems) are currently used in production vehicles (ex. in the current Audi 3.0T motor to provide boost while the turbo is out of boost).

    So cold air intakes depending on how your factory intake work wonders.. on my 04 gmc I dropped half a sec in quarter with out tuning. So it wasn't just for looks or sound.. now some of the new cars that are more computerized yes you would need a tune so your computer will allow for max air flow. Pre 06ish.. not needed
