Why you should install Cool Air Intake?

You may have never thought that air is as important for your vehicle as it is for human beings. Proper air intake can convert your car into performance machine.  It is the deciding factor of the performance and mileage of car.  For this, cool air intakes can be installed. This air intake is used to pump cooler air to increase the power and efficiency of engine. The factory fitted parts tend to restrict the engine power as the higher amount or flow of air can increase the noise coming from engine.   The cool air intakes are very easy to install and can be found in market easily. Brands like Fujita intake, Injen, AEM and Airraid are some of the reputed brand names.

These market fitted stocks are known as aftermarket equipments. It takes some modifications here and there which can visibly increase the gas mileage and engine performance. All cool air intakes such as Injen Intakes, KN, AEM and Iceman pump in pure Oxygen which is cooler and higher in density and  used for internal combustion of fuel. The modifications of designing in CAI or Cool Air Intake are: 

1)          The air intake pipe is increased in diameter to reduce the velocity of air. 

2)      As the diameter is increased, the loss of air is less. 

3)      The air intake pipe is made smoother so that air has to face less resistance. 

The length of intake is reduced so that the direct contact route could be opted

Using CAI has its own advantage and not-so-advantages.  The installation of cool air intakes is easier than any other performance modification part. There are so many things that are used by vehicle owners to enhance the performance of their vehicles but they are mainly hooked to aftermarket CAIs such as Fujita intakes because these are cost effective and cheaper than the original equipments. The advantages of CAI include increased horsepower and fuel economy whereas the disadvantages comprise throaty noise of engine, hydrolock and voiding of the warranty from the original manufacturer.  

One can find many styles and varieties in CAI. They are made of plastic, silicone, or any composite material to make it more durable. Most of the modern cool air intakes such as Injen Intakes use air inbox and made of stainless steel which makes them even sturdier and rust free in the long run.
