JoeJITSU Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 I have had it like this for a week and it feels like I lost HP. I was just expecting to have better sounds, which is pretty cool but it seems like the Hot Air of Vegas is trapped down there and I am losing HP. Thoughts? I plan to put my Milk Carton back on as soon as it cools down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robinlsb Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Yes, you lost HP. The stock air box even works better than a non ducted CAI "Belief does not make truth. Evidence makes truth. And belief does not make evidence." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phate Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Took mine off when I had the airbox out a week or two ago, because the car's too quiet and I wanted to hear more turbo choo choo noises. Seems to run totally fine, but it really doesn't make things much louder, so I'm putting it back in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impulse Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Yes, you lost HP. The stock air box even works better than a non ducted CAI Indeed! The reason why, if anyone is wondering, is due to Helmholtz resonance. The whole stock intake system was designed *with* the box/resonator in place and is needed for optimum efficiency. http://www.brighthubengineering.com/machine-design/84316-how-intake-resonators-improve-volumetric-efficiency/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
covertrussian Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 I gained HP, but only when I could keep the IAT's at bay. Without the milk jug IAT's would spike up higher then with it (I believe this is because the fender well is being majorly polluted by the exhaust).
