Since when is the intake before the throttle body or carb. and not after?

 

Every car known to man is set up this way, that must be some good hippie lettuce you're smoking.


You might need one of these so here you go.

 

Just use the 3 intakes per head, everything before that is useless and adds weight.

 

Cocaine's a hell of a drug...

 

O.o

and what does this have to do with being a two cents?

 

That denomination of money does not even exist in Canada anymore- hopefully Texas goes that way soon too... It will save this community from a lot of useless threads.

 

 

Asking for your two cents worth is asking your opinion. Which is something I will never ask again. The people on this are too young to understand. Too bad common sense ain't so common anymore.

 

How is an intake manifold and a cold air intake are similar? I think that's what you are comparing.

 

I'm not sure the fact that your sarcasm meter isn't properly calibrated to this forum has anything to do with the age of anyone in here, nor the fact that we don't understand what "two cents" is, whether given or asked for.

As for the common sense angle... I'll bite at that one. Please tell us how many combustion engines have their air intake after the throttle body and help us understand how we could overlook such a "common" feature.

 

Or you mean you asked a really stupid question, or worded your question completely incorrectly. Age has nothing to do with letting you know your question makes no sense. Not to mention nobody directly flamed you even though you gave almost no context for your question that made little sense. Don't get butt hurt when you get responses you didn't expect, especially when everyone was being pretty polite about it for being on an internet forum

 

The internet can be a scary place, full of sarcasm and indirect insults. But, if you take even a minuscule amount of time to create a PROPER thread with a question that had any sort of direction at all you will get out of it relatively un-butt-hurt.

But seriously, WTF are you trying to ask? Are you referring to the manifold? The filter element? The MAF? Please elaborate.

 

I think that's what he was getting at...

I'm guessing he was taking a shot at people that consider "changing the intake" to mean replacing the cold air intake out vs people who consider "changing an intake" to refer to the intake manifold

 

Our intake isn't the manifold you'd find with a car running a carb.or throttle body, that's "Old School!" Our VQ motors breathing systems begin with the filter, sensor then intake tube thru the throttle body (another sensor) to the plenum where the air is divided to each individual port. Welcome to the 21st Century!

That makes a lot of sensor to me now. Er, ah, a lot of cents to me. No, I mean a lot of scents!? Aw, forget it. The question stinks.
