Re:Intake Horn Question

[quote author=Smoke Dog link=board=4;threadid=7571;start=0#72753 date=1038343514]<br>Pressure is constant throughout the system at that point anyway and the turbo is obviously producing plenty of replacement air as needed. Don't worry about the dual horn system (or lack of it).<br>[/quote]<br><br>You're refering here to pressure being constant across the cross section of the air horn. I just wanted to caution against thinking that pressure back at the turbo is the same as pressure at the air horn, which is not true. Because there is air flow from turbo to air horn through the intercooler, there will be a pressure drop or loss. which is why we measure manifold air pressure (MAP sensor) and not turbo outlet pressure which will of course be higher. <br><br>trivia for the day <br><br>doug

Re:Intake Horn Question

The sheep really does add a nice shine to it. The penguins on the inside take care of the rought stuff. You have to go back with some fine sandpaper or something on the inside though cause the penguins leave a couple of marks. ;D
