ohhhh lol , i probably miss understood your convo about the kid.
Yea, getting temperatures to 2 degrees even -1 is not possible with the stuff you have lying around, we were about 6 people who invented this, one is a shcematic engineer, the other is a computer programmer, i was the guy with the idea, what i wanted and designed it, the other 2 specialise in aircraft engineering, they dwell on finding better air flow designs for aeroplane wings so they helped me too. and the last one was the software developer.
together we designed this intake to function properlly.
the cold air that is blown into the cone filter is done from the inside
#1 because the ouside temperature heats any cold air as fast as it can, so by having this cold ice dry sprayed inside the intake works like a NOS system, direct injection.
#2 makes sense to get this kind of cold as close to the TB as possible.
the AC module that i discussed so simply is complecated, the sofware programmer and computer programmer guys used a laptop and created what we called unofficially, DIFICS, (dry ice forced injection control system) and prammed an ECU with the software, and had that connected to the AC, which ment you could use your ac like normal, but you would install an extra switch which you would flick for on or off when using the forced intake system we developed.
after we used steel sheets for boxing in the cone filter and the (ARV) AIR RAM VENT we later used carbon fiber, wich was much better, lighter, looked more better, heated way less, was stronger, made almost no rattle sound from the air flapping against the vents, this also meant not rust.
we also had what we called (UEF) ultra efficient Fins, these are embeded inside several places in the process of the (SARFII) Short Air Ram Forced Injection Intake, these are designed in such a way and at certain angles that when air hits them from one side they would start spining, and we added sorts of coils in them that they kept spining faster and faster to a certain limit, the air which passed through was funeled like a turnado, so the air is going at a concentrated V-point.
Soon after this same air is sprayed with dry ice, well its a less concentrated level of it, this is not actual dry ice but really hard condenced air that is produced by the AC compressor, we basically turboed the process. And yess it does use more engine power, that took a whole lot of computer maths to figure out for the guys, till we got results that were really good, we got 19whp for 2 degrees and 23whp for -1 degree.
We expect to get about 29whp with -10, not a big difference, because then more engine hp get used to produce the denser colder air.
only problem we are facing is that with much colder temps like -1, and colder, the engine use's more fuel than a same car with Intake,headers,full exhaust.
so now its time to work on a software to manage the fuel ratio for cars that buy this kit, what will happen is that the software will be programmed in co-op with the DIFICS so, every time a guy swites on the DIFICS same time the fuel management system reduces the fuel you use with the ammount of FI, this will rob the car off some hp but it will save the owner gas, we will keep both options, because for turbo cars we won't be able to deprive the car for gas.
And yea, lol, i won't go into detail this is our invention, we don't have to worry because its patented, but still.
Took us 5 years to develope and still working on it.
....
What do you guys think?
