does intake give more horse?
 

i got 1998 accord 4 cyl and want to put an intake in.I hear that itgive good gasmile. Does it really boost the horse and give good miles?

RE: does intake give more horse?
 

It can boost horsepower by anywhere from 5-10hp. It can also increase mileage. It does both by allowing a greater and less restricted airflow into the engine, and in some applications a denser charge as well.

I'd have to agree with Shadow ... Also, there are prob 10-15 different threads about air intakes and what they do.. may wanna look them up !

It can increase mileage, this is true. It can also decrease it if youre like me, and love the sound it makes when you give it the gas:D

oh what is the denser charge?

hahaha i c thanks guys

Denser charge simply means more air per cubic inch. Air is less dense when hot and denser when cold, so even though it may always be pulling x amount of cubic feet per minute of air, the colder(denser) air will have more molecules of oxygen for the engine to burn. Some SRI and a well designed CAI will pick up cooler air than a standard intake or badly designed SRI.

Also there is nothing wrong with your thread/post. It only takes a couple minutes to answer, and we're always glad to help in any way :D
