Default Intake Ideas


i think that i have seen this on an Rx-7 before but i have never really seen it on to many cars at all.
what if you could have both True cold Air AND short Ram intake.. you could have the intake pipe split one go down and be CAI and the other be a Short Ram
has anyone ever seen this on a Saturn?
I think i want to do it!!!!

Why bother putting in a ram if you have a CAI? I don't see how the short ram air intake would serve any purpose except to warm the air from the CAI.

Way to be an ass bob.

Roger, having 2 intakes is not much use because a Saturn motor is never gona suck in more air than 1 intake can provide. Also a better option would be to have a cold air ram system (aka, a true ram intake). Put a scoop in the hood and make the intake run into it....its short, its cold air, and it has the ram effect.
