No kidding! While testing the new 4 inch Densecharger system,and even though there was a large fan in front of the car,a small size electric leaf blower,1ft. away from the fog light hole/filter area,was worth that much across the RPM range. This simulates airflow at road speed,with the Densecharger setup,in the down position.
BLOWER NO BLOWER
RPM 3000 HP 140.3 HP 136.0
TQ 245.6 TQ 239.3
RPM 4200 HP 218 HP 212.4
TQ 272.8 TQ 265.5
RPM 4900 HP 235 HP 228.7
TQ 251.5 TQ 245.0
Bring your blower!
Max power with 4 inch setup was 236 HP at 5000 RPM on first run,as compared to 227 HP with factory air box/paper filter setup.
Due to some testing errors,a new 3 inch test will be conducted to compare to the new 4 inch setup. Road test show a bit more torque at 3000 with the 3 inch system. The 4 inch should work better on a Cobra.
NOTE: The numbers shown didn't line up right,when I entered the post. Larger numbers for HP and TQ are for the leaf blower results.....Sorry!
