thanks for the compliments. he has many hours in the intake alone.. but hearing that kind of feedback helps. hahathinking of something like this for the under hood air filter/box. anyone here happen to know the CFM requirements for an HX35.. Norm..?? 600 CFM seems like plenty.. especially since it's forcibly being sucked in and not just passively pulled by cylinder suction. would like to have a SqD type pre filter on it as well.. where did you source yours from Don? http://m.summitracing.com/parts/spe-9831?seid=srese1&gclid=CKqNiP2VsMsCFQusaQodWiIFgAhttp://www.sfxperformance.com/parts/SPT9832.htmand possibly.. but less likely just based on space: https://www.doghouserepair.com/store/item/8821/17-2516-air-filter-housing-aluminum-12-body-4-in-4-out-left-side-empi/
I have a small K&N cone filter (3.5" inlet or so) on my 1st gen 12 valve with HX35 and 2nd gen IC and I still make ~30ish psi in 2nd.. ??? maybe it will be roughly the same.. not entirely sure though. I suppose I can always go bigger if needed..??the cobra makes 15ish psi on stock intake and SC.. so maybe quality of air filter is more important than surface area..?
i think I found the pre cleaner you were talking about Don. think it's gonna be en route in the next few days.
you should write a book.. ??? hahahthe next question would be, how could/would one test the VOLUME as it relates to PRESSURE once all gauges are hooked up? say I see 35 psi on autometer.. how do I know I'm getting good, solid volume and boost in the intake manifold?
I saw the top spin models. do you see any issue with what i posted? my dad likes the look of the clear sided model.. hhah

Now mine atop Square D says "This guy here who owns me, why, he's intelligent...or legitimate, or something like that. People see that truck and their eyes quickly go to the top spin, which I like to call my "Top Hat" and I can just read their minds "This guy here is intelligent...I can see it in that top thingy!"That's what I have to say about that!

You carrying a picture of it around taped to your forehead or was this possibly on the way to the diesel mechanics shop on the trailer behind C-max as you were stuck in a mall mulch bed again? ::)

Then use the snow shovel to remove the dust so they can make out the outline of a truck
I'm guessing trn's shop by the back of a trailer.....
Man that's going to look good when you are done. Lets just hope it doesnt turn into a paperweight like SQ D
Where's all the smoke at? The last one of those that ran on here made a lot of smoke inside a garage and it looked all foggy and such......
I was amazed when we knocked off the grime and degreased it. shot it with cummins beige and aircraft paint remover on the valve covers, intake and turbo compressor housing. my dad wanted to make it look like a machine, so we did. lol
So, Bobby...being the calculating trained warrior NCO that you are. Take the appropriate action, Execute!
your standard grunt level CQB is just putting rounds and rounds on scary stuff till it stops scaring you!
Cool! you thinkin' about having an EGT probe? ...now would be the time!...nevermind. duh
