thanks for the post. having the 02 burn instead of the fuel , did sound wrong to me. and it being a catalyst. too hot makes sense. and detonation (which is when the total pressure + heat is higher then Said limit of a given octane fuel) which is why we have to use 91 instead of 87 for a non turboed 8.7:1 ratio car .. ?? (think that's right but bonk me if not)
okay so by just doing a short ram air , Alone, the extra risk i have is additional heat ? how likely do you think that short ram air alone is , to kill my motor ? like would you bet me money? would you give me 100:1 odds that my motor never sees 100K miles becuase of this mod? (if so what's my bet max ?
) or is it just one of those things that technically is not optimal becuase of additional heat, and addtional chance for a detonation ?
like adding in 100 lbs of stereo gear is not optimal. and the 100 amp draw off your alternator, not optimal. just like my spelling
reading that its sub-optimal makes me want to go back. BUT the added noises literaly cuase me to smile daily, (and laugh on occasion) Plus my dad bought it for me for Xmass. (he didn't even know what he was buying me
)
