Cold air intake!

[3800l67gam]

Can a cold air intake make a big difference at all at the track because I raced a GTP when I was stock and he beat me by a door length but when I put the CAI on he was at my rear bumper. Stock my car in the 1/8th it ran an 11.32 with the CAI it ran a 10.30 let me know if you felt a difference.

[xXManwhoreXx]

Lol wut?

[S8track16]

My car just got louder.

[03Sleepr]

Yea brah I went from 13.80 in the 1/8th to 7.23 when I put on my cai best mod evar dude eff turbo.

So your stock ga beat a gtp by a full length?

[sleepyalero]

Why do you do this to yourself 3800...

[tw0123]

Maybe he thought this site was nicer than gagt!!!

[sleepyalero]

Lol. Intake wont do much for you, even with no supporting mods for more air. I highly doubt your cai made your car run a full second faster.

If that were possible that would be everyones very first mod for power. Even though it basically already is but not because it will "knock a second" off your drag times.

[Redog]

So, with only a CAI, you went from a 11.32 to a 10.30 in the 1/8.

The 1/4 mile conversion of that is you went from a 17.63 to a 16.07, dropping 1.56 seconds off your time, with just a CAI.

Haven't heard that kind of ricer wit around here in a long time :rolleyes2:

[sleepyalero]

You should see his non sense on gagt....

[3800l67gam]

Maybe he thought this site was nicer than gagt!!!

This site is whole lot better than GAGT

[sleepyalero]

Your just going to make it where people wont take you seriously here as well as you did on gagt.

I'll dig up some time slips I can prove it.

[jeffrey1990]

lol the most a cai is gonna give you is somthing like 1.7% of your engines hp
purity much if it wasn't for the sound its usles

[sleepyalero]

Cai didnt do it....

[3800l67gam]

Cai didnt do it....

Then what did it hmm?

[3800l67gam]

Yea brah I went from 13.80 in the 1/8th to 7.23 when I put on my cai best mod evar dude eff turbo.

yup The YouTube video is not the one on those time slips but I surely beat him http://youtu.be/mzdjUNb2N1g

The Last pic is all of my time slips

[Redog]

You "beat" the Grand Prix because he didn't know how to drive. Was he waiting for the green light of the two cars behind you :No:

[Ecotecalero02]

Sorry cai alone won't do that good and he was catching you at the end

[3800l67gam]

Sorry cai alone won't do that good and he was catching you at the end

He was catching up with me in the end but this isn't the same GTP that I raced it was a different one could've swore I said that. There's a White GTP that has a 3.4 pulley setup that I raced I didn't have the video camera that night. http://youtu.be/fZoratqlfw4 Here's the gtp

[Ecotecalero02]

Ok but still I've been around cars my whole life and have yet to see a cold air setup pick up a whole second on a stock car

[3800l67gam]

Ok but still I've been around cars my whole life and have yet to see a cold air setup pick up a whole second on a stock car

Well I showed proof and ya still do not believe it. :eek:

[Ecotecalero02]

You posted beating someone taking a nap at the track how does that prove anything

[3800l67gam]

You posted beating someone taking a nap at the track how does that prove anything

You must have looked past time slips that's what it's all about. Look at the time slips it shows perfect proof that. The CAI did help If that's not enough proof I don't know what is.

[Ecotecalero02]

Sorry still smells fishier then a Vegas hooker

[3800l67gam]

Sorry still smells fishier then a Vegas hooker

LOL Well what else do ya want me to say.

[Ecotecalero02]

Whatever you want it doesn't bother me I'm going off my experience as a mechanic

[sleepyalero]

Sorry still smells fishier then a Vegas hooker

Very nice, you will do well here. :)

As for 3800, no one is going to believe you, no matter what you say.


I still dont believe you. Dont believe anything you really say, its all just non sense. I feel like you put all this on yourself to have people not like you/believe your sayings.

[Ecotecalero02]

Thank you glad to see I fit in lol

[Redog]

The best I've seen a CAI gain was .5 seconds in the 1/4

And you post a vid of a glorified street race where neither one of you knew what you were doing, and it shows in r/t, style, launch, etc.

For the sake of argument, let's just say you did pick up 1.5 seconds in the 1/4 from a CAI. The CAI wasn't the only factor. What about other mods, car weight the day of, weather conditions the day of, air pressure, humidity, temp, time of day (you can see this was at dusk, when it's starting to get cooler)

My car, with the SAME mods, has run 14.82 one day and 16.1 another, all based on current conditions.

You CAI did not gain you that much, it was a combo of your CAI and excellent conditions on that day.

This is 10 years of racing experience talking here. I know what I'm talking about. Do I know everything? Absolutely not. Does Mitch (Daytona on here) know everything with 25 years of racing experience behind him, absolutely not, but we both know more than you.

Congrats on your good track day and winning your "street" race :awesome:

EDIT** You may have slips, but the vid does not show the scoreboard. Isn't that the most important part of taping a drag race?

[Ecotecalero02]

Thank you you explained it way better they i could have I'm not really a racer I just build 'em

They do not have a score board at that race track they only have a light at the end of the track that lets you know who wins time slips are accurate :P
And I never street race it was at the track street racing is stupid that's how people get tickets.

The Video's links where uploaded to U-tube in 2010.......... this thread seems pointless. Have u been thinking about your CAI for 3 years 3800 ?

[sleepyalero]

Good catch.

[jackal2000]

On the slow run it says FOUL? You red light bro? That will throw off a time for sure.

[spc2125]

I have a cai for sale.... you should have two just in case.

[3800l67gam]

Have two of them is pointless.

Mo air mo POWER! that will give you 2.35 secs of your time.

ever thought of buying a blue mustang?







pjwellington? :rolleyes2:

[tw0123]

Nah man it'll give him mad air flow ... he'll shave another 8 seconds off with that much air induction!!!

Oh no I'm so scared :eek: Well the time slips are proof so I do not care anymore to actually think you people over here On Aleromod were nice still the same as GAGT I'm done with this forum I'm going back to the grand prix forums cya later. Sleepy Really lol

[sleepyalero]

Sorry man. :lol:

Its obvious no one will take you seriously. I mean stock motor and only cai knocks off over a second in time. Like redog said. Weather is a big factor in racing.

It was around 50-60 degrees that night with the CAI. I had a cover and a jacket on.!

What were the conditions like on the other pass the temp, wind and track temp.

[a.graham52]

i was referencing a previous member.

[Oldsnut]

This I would also like to know.

[nicothehut]

I don't know about anyone else but remember the track tem from at night 3 years ago is pretty much impossible. Unless 3800 flip those time sheets over and he recorded them. But I think not.

[03gxeco]

in none of his videos was the light at the end of the track showing. he has to real proof of his passes.

[Redog]

On the slow run it says FOUL? You red light bro? That will throw off a time for sure.

The clocks start when you cross the start line. You could have a .000 light, -.800, or 1.658 light, doesn't matter

I have a cai for sale.... you should have two just in case.

It took that long for his buddy with a faster car to have the same race number that he had in the video ;)

No man, it's not that we don't believe you, its that your story is not air tight. You post about running this great time, then post a vid that's 3 years old, and you ran out of bullshit to back it up.

By the way, this is how you properly shoot a track video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LytVNZpggkM) and this video leaves no questions on what I ran. Yes this vid is old, but it's the best video I have on my 1/4 mile times. This video was shot in December, at a track that runs into the woods were my car is ALWAYS faster. Here's a video taken on Mother's Day a few years ago. Car rarely runs 14's at this track (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPQJRiyE9IE) it is my home track and the car has run 14's there maybe 5 times. the best here was 14.825 when the conditions were like "mine shaft" air. Air pressure was equal to 500 feet below sea level at the starting line, but closer to 700 feet below at the finish line. Everybody was running faster this day

At this track you keep the same number untill you tell them you're not racing any more so no one else had my same number.

[Ecotecalero02]

Whatever helps you sleep at night and you should stop doing this to yourself

What happen to it??

[Ecotecalero02]

It was at my buddy's shop and his shop burned up and unfortunately my car was inside

[Redog]

At this track you keep the same number untill you tell them you're not racing any more so no one else had my same number.

How much is the number per year?

[Ecotecalero02]

Red do you know of any good places to get cams for the 3400

[3800l67gam]

How much is the number per year?

No pay at all they just keep you in the system you just pay the 10$ entry fee every to ya go and you just race they hate giving people new tech numbers.

[3800l67gam]

Red do you know of any good places to get cams for the 3400

Milzmotorsports or WOT-TECH

Take out the flat filter, fill the airbox with ice cubes, then race it. :awesome:

Did you not read the earlier posts I don't have the stock air box in the car. There's a CAI in place of it.

[Ecotecalero02]

They are joking

[a.graham52]

woa, how did 3800 go from full negative rep to ull positive rep in a day?

[3800l67gam]

They are joking

I know

[03Sleepr]

Because people don't take rep seriously on this site.

[xXManwhoreXx]

Becuase I repped him lol for the lulz

[sleepyalero]

Because people don't take rep seriously on this site.

Hey, eric is one of em! :lol:

[MMGT1]

Oh this site can be so full of win.... How did I miss the action over here! My guess, if the dude is actually trying to be "on the up" about this, is if the stock set up he had in place was a brick.. completely plugged filter. If a plugged filter were to come out, factory intake removed, new filter with the cai and a really dense air charge, yes I could see it happening that way.
Other than that, dude we've been doing this a long ass time and you had to know the B.S. flag would go up on this..
