dual intake system?

Post by vibe04 »

This may seem stupid, but is there any way to make a dual intake system? After the throttle body install a piece that splits and have a s/r and a cai, two cai or two s/r? Any ideas? I'm thinking about trying this out, so any feedback will be much appreciated!

Just from my experience i have tried it, and the only way u can do it is with a CAI, and u have to split it off right away when it gets down by the driver fog light and then run a pipe over to the passenger fog light area. so it can be done, but it wont due much for you, b/c u would need to find some way to increase the suction, so the engine is able to pull the air from alll the way over by the other fog light.

It is possible to do that, but it would be impractical. There would be no more gains than if you had a SR or CAI alone. Not worth the time or money for what you would put into it.

oh well, I'll figure out another project I can do. Maybe it's time for a new horn to go in. Thanks for the info.

is the horn swap out as easy as disconecting the two wires and hooking them back up?
