[quote][i]Originally posted by Daimo B[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by DizzyRebel[/i] If your drag racing a turbo, most of the dedicated racers have n20 jets infront of the coolers that chill it right down Any serious performance does so quite quickly too. If you wanted it to happen even faster for a true traffic light grand prix you could fit bonnet lifters so the warm air is released even faster. There may be a degree or 2 difference in intake temperatures at idle, but on the move there wont be any difference at all. if race cars dont use enclosed filters then i wont either... [/quote] Most dedicated drag racers will have a CC mated to an IC. An IC is totally useless off the line. We're not talking a few degree's, we're talking quite a lot more. application will have a cold air feed of some sort channeling air towards the filter. But it really is true when your on the move that the cold air displaces the warm air, and it Especially as Drag Racing is a summer months sport, hence higher air temps. Having a hot engine on the line (cars sit on the line for a few minutes, go leave your car running for a few minutes, then go and open your bonnet and feel the heat come out). You don't want cool airflow half way down the drag strip, you want it before you've left the line, and the way this is done is with a CC. A few puffs of N20 will only cool the charge for an instant. RACE cars are different ball game. They are always on the move. U'll also find RACE cars have sealed airboxes, not open cone filters. Drag racing and RACE cars are two totally different machines and the way the engines run are totally different. [/quote]
