Could my SLP CAI be a bottle neck?
Could my SLP CAI be a bottle neck?
I was thinking after reading an earlier post regarding CAI filter cfm. In the thread it was noted that the conical filter of the K&N CAI flowed something in the area of 900 cfm. Since a 58mm or larger TB flows more a larger filter would be needed to get rid of the restriction etc. This ofcourse would need at a minimum a descreened MAF or larger MAF.....
Mainly my question is if that large of a filter flows 900 cfm than the tiny two filters of the SLP system would be way below that, thus theoretically producing a bottle neck.
On stock or mildly modifed cars this is probably of no cocern but when trying to eek out every last bit of power of a highly modified NA motor I thought it was of some concern.
Anyone have any insight on this?
