A cold air induction system is a revolutionary technology that is designed to deliver cool air into the internal combustion engine of a car or truck.
Benefits of Cold Air Induction
Cool air is richer in oxygen which helps to create stronger combustion in the engine, resulting in enhanced engine horsepower and torque. On the contrary, if the engine tends to get overheated, it will begin to lose power and consume more fuel. Cool air delivery into the engine will enhance its air to fuel ratio in most cases, the net result of which is better fuel efficiency.
Furthermore, to increase the cold air intake, the inlet pipe is tuned in dimensions to match up to the resonance of the engine. This enables the engine to pump an increased amount of air into the cylinders, resulting in greater engine power. There are leading makes such as the AEM cold air induction systems which come with a limited lifetime warranty as they are built to last.
Short Ram Air Intakes
For customers who are looking for more affordable substitutes for cold air intake systems can opt for short ram intakes. This is an effective alternative in terms of efficiency and simple installation in the car engine. This alternative offers great value for money because it costs less to manufacture it, and it fits comfortably under the car’s hood.
Dual Chamber Cold Air Intakes
Some manufacturers offer advanced air induction systems that are designed with dual chambers for optimal engine power. This system usually produces superior power than the traditional cold air intake system. Dual chamber system refers to two pipes of different dimensions that generate multiple frequency sound waves.
The purpose of these sound waves is to push cool air delivery into the cylinders. The key is that the engine’s filter must be relocated in the coolest part of the engine in order to achieve maximum engine cooling.
Air Induction for SUVs and Trucks
There are specially designed air intakes for large displacement engines that are used in SUVs and trucks. The inlet pipe resonance of the engine is tuned to allow it to deliver greater volumes of air to the intake valve.
The plumbing of the engine is re-routed in order to draw air from the coolest location. These intakes come with reinforced brackets and a heat shield that is coated with steel in order to protect the filter from engine heat and external dust.
Earth-friendly Automotive Systems
Innovative solutions such as cold air intake systems help to preserve the environment by enhancing fuel economy. Such technologies can contribute their bit to promote the planet's overall sustainability.
