Talking dual cai intake

Getting a front lip installed on my RSK B4 soon, got thinking about using the air being sucked through the front lip & came up with this double whammmmie.

So apart from the air in front & where my exsisting snork is at the mo the theory is more cold air more power.

You don't need that much air, so I'd stick with stock.

interesting. have you tried plugging up one side to see if it makes a diff? just wondering since no matter how may you have they all still go to that one hose. since it can only flow so much air at a time there comes a point where it gets useless. just a thought. GJ anyway

testing

Did a test with a powerful fan, we made up a shield so we could only send air through to the front of the intake... covered one intake felt good then had air rushing through both intakes & the results felt stong .

We did a test on a subbie today with his original snork then we changed to the double intake & there were good gains on the primary & secondary turbos & again
hardly noticing any lag between the change overs.

One day he'll get it on the dyno, last readind with his single snork he got 184 k watts he only wanted an extra 7 but got 19 k/watts instead, we had put in the snork and 3 bellmouths.

Easy to make we use plumbing down pipe, some people use that flexi
corragated tubing but that would give a turbalent sucking affect when air passing through the tube.
