how big of a throttle body are you running? 4" tube should easily support a 102mm TB since they're both the same size, right?

think about it this way...
take a 1" diameter piece of house about 1" long and blow through it, very easy right?
now take another 1" diameter hose and make it about 3' long and throw in a bend or two and blow through it again, not so easy huh?

4" is a restriction on a healthy 4xx motor. just cause the TB is one size doenst mean the air track to it is of equal flowing. Like anything else your breathing your a straw, the biggest it is the better its going to flow. bends and length effect flow seriouslydual 4" running to each side of truck and behind the headlights or down under neath the bumper with scoops to get fresh airOriginally Posted by RedHeartbeat

it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference
couple things...
We're in IL, hot summer, cold winter...won't that prose a problem to a SD tune?
And as far as intakes...without MAF...couldn't he just stick a vette style filter on the TB and call it a day? (ignoring underhood temps...don't think those will be an issue)
blown transmissions are about as useful as 97% of the guys on this forum
SD tune still references the IAT. Also the MAP sensor picks up the differences in temperature through the density of the air.

The myth of sd having issues with weather gets old. If ppl didn't post so much bulls1t then others would understand more
Filter off tb is hot air

Just bringing up things I've heard...figured the myths would get worked out here...and like I said...underhood temps shouldn't be a problem for him...
