Increase Horsepower: Air Induction

Air induction is the air flow into the engine. Increase the air flow and you'll increase horsepower. Start with low-restriction air filters from K&N. Their standard filter promises a 1-4 horsepower gain. Upgrade to a high performance aluminum tubing intake system, and that jumps to a 7 horsepower gain.

Another way to reduce restriction of air flow is by increasing the size of the throttle body (for fuel-injected cars). JEGS also carries a flow booster, which directs air towards the throttle body and promises to give you another 7 horsepower. For carbureted cars, go for a larger carburetor. Performance Carburetors offers expert advice on which parts you'll need.

Better yet, find me something that says an increase in air intake hurts my vehicles performance of hp, torque, etc.....

Also, I never argued the fact that the "TORNADO" was crap, Tell me if popular mechanics found that a throttle body spacer that increases air flow has no effect and i'll believe you.

What your failing to see is that no one has argued the functionality of the AIR RAID system. The "tornado" had restrictions and dissproved, the idea of airflow into the engine was NOT. Therefore leaving that product infallible. NOT the idea. SO find me something that says increased airflow into the engine is bad and that my AIR RAID is as well and I will thank you for saving me money. Don't find me OTHER products that aren't as good.

Anything that makes that air flow more freely helps that circle spin faster and more efficiently. You gain horsepower, and waste less gas."

I appreciate all of the input and know how in this thread....the fact is...performnance doesn't lie and my truck has never once choked up and cut off after starting it.......until AIR RAID came along
