Expert Intake Installations for Birmingham Luxury Car Owners
Cold air intake is a quick modification that can be made to a car’s engine to increase its performance. It is designed to bring in cooler, denser air from outside the engine compartment, rather than the warm air that is typically found under the hood. This cooler air is more oxygen-rich, which allows the engine to burn fuel more efficiently and produce more power, which makes your drive far more fun.
The basic concept behind a cold air intake is simple: as air is heated, it expands and becomes less dense. This means that there are fewer oxygen molecules in a given volume of warm air than in the same volume of cool air. When the engine burns fuel, it needs oxygen to do so. If there is less oxygen in the air, the engine will not be able to burn as much fuel and will produce less power.
How it Works When Installed
A cold air intake system typically includes a new air filter and a new intake tube that directs the cool air into the engine. The air filter is usually located in a location that is farther away from the engine, such as in the front of the car, where it can take in cooler air. The intake tube is usually made of a material that does not heat up as easily as the plastic tubes found in most factory air intake systems. This helps to keep the air cool as it travels to the engine. Installing a cold air intake is a relatively inexpensive modification, so talk to our mechanics today!
Reap the Benefits
The benefits of a cold air intake system includes an increase in horsepower and torque, improved throttle response, and better engine sound! The increased horsepower and torque can be felt in the form of improved acceleration and faster top speeds. The improved throttle response can make the car feel more responsive, especially when driving on winding roads. Finally, the better engine sound can add a sporty, aggressive note to the exhaust note so you’ll turn heads when you drive by.
