I sometime quoted w/ Pic's but often to add thumb to {img} tag so = {img thumb} so pic's have a thumb nail & pic in case quote post is edited.

Also Just adding Thumb means PFF will have the small copy of image from any other site because some still use imageshack etc or use pic @ amazon etc that can & have deleted/move a pic then have Red X problem here.

Unless you are converted to a mass air system these changes amount to little. The factory closed loop really does not adjust yo more air or colder air.

Also the air coming in is pretty cool and that is why the intake is in a cooler part of the car on the side.

To everyone:

1 - I know a factory 2.8 Fiero will not see any benefit.
2 - I also know the air under the decklid is hot
3 - Thank you

I said if you can get past the hot air (fabricate something) and use it with the stock air canister (for which it fits), you could get air coming from both the top and the bottom of the filter canister.



Forgive my woefully lacking engineering prowess but ... I see things which I question.

Would you use a set of headers of which one side had a larger diameter ? Or say a pump with different sized fluid suction lines ?

Guys... if you were running a bored and stroked 3.4 w/ 3.5 liters of displacement, a bored throttle body, and a DAWG mod and a larger intake tube... you absolutely could make use of the additional air. I'm not saying anyone should do this, I'm literally just saying this was something I found in the junkyard, and thought it was cool, and it was $2 bucks, and it fits the stock air canister. Maybe someone could do something with this if you wanted to make custom. I'm not understanding your analogy. I feel like you guys are all acting like this...

Let me try this one. Although it may make less sense.

An out door spigot, with a "Y" enabling two hoses. One half inch, the other 3/4. Which one would the flow fill the same bucket first. Which one produces more pressure ?

My thoughts likely don't matter. However, the air flow designed to enrich the air/fuel mixture correctly, should be considered when adapting air intake or exhaust amounts.

My mind wanders about all things before I make a decision.

My lack of engineering prowess would make me wonder if using a larger exhaust system or headers, might create a need for more intake volume.

Hah, I think you're trolling me now...
