Well, with the supercharger, turbulence is not going to be a big issue, though I see what you are saying. But even if the air flow was perfectly straight, when it hit that blower a whole bunch of turbulence would be added, to say nothing of the effect of the Lower Intake Manifold.Originally Posted by badbuick85
That said, I think its an interesting set up, I just think that he might be better off with a larger filter and overall tube diameter and less bends.

Thanks for the comments and/or suggestions. The reason I went with the 2 filter set up was for 2 reasons. First, the filters are small and one filter would not have been suffient. Secondly (and by luck) both filters end in locations where the air will be much cooler as both locations can suck in outside air. There are alot of CAI's on the market that have little or no research or thought put into them. It seems alot of companies are missing the point and a very important one (COLD) air intake. Having a short hose connected to a big filter sucking in hot underhood air is actually worse then just leaving the stock box on but Im sure thats up for debate.
There are a few on the market that I like but dont think there worth 300-400. I had a KN before I made this and the difference is huge. I will have a better idea after the weekend when I take it to the track. Again, I appreciate the comments and suggestions and relize that everything can be improved. Cheers, Scott
