Alright well the last couple of mouths ive been thinking.

I'm thinking about making something ill beable to force air straight into my carby as my car aint a road going car i was thinking a small scoop sort of thing then into a pipe staight into the carby but don't really have ideas of how i would go about it any ideas pepole

cheers

Make a shitty box for the carb then a bit of AC hose poking up front behind the grille. You'll see bugger all performance though and the extra dusty goodness will make short work of your bores.

about the only way to force air down there is turbo or supercharging. hence the term "forced induction" :jamie:

 

Then again, anything that helps the engine suck cooler air has got to be of some advantage. Rather than sucking hot air from under the bonnet thats already been thru a hot radiator.

 

Something like an air dam from behind the beaver panel piping into an air box on the carb or something. just an idea.

I am doing a similar setup for my car, i made a squarish funnel out of sheet aluminum, more or less to decrease the vacuum then to get psi, (which is kind of forced induction) and i am placing it behind my grill

 

for some good reading about all this and to see that ram air inductions (i.e. that putting a funel out the front of your car) work to get rid of vacuum,

(although you may not have manifold vacuum at all times for brake booster vac advance etc. etc.)

i was thinking a airbox or some thought ontop of carby some how and air filter then a scoop kindof thing in the bonnet to get me cold air almost kind of pushing itself i i know i wont get any psi as such but the colder air should help
