Fujita Intake Review
#31
You show two sets of numbers in each column seperated by a / Just want to know what the difference is between the number before and after the /.

ironchef thanks alot for the info, fujita intakes it is!
and yeah its noticable how the shield manages to trap all the hot air in there.. and 6 hp gains without reflash sounds interesting
cheers to your efforts

Three key factors noted thus far:
Tomorrow is supposed to rain but I'll get on that one next!
- Coolant running through stock throttle body makes it a constant source of heat no matter which intake is used. Even cold air once it approaches this area will be warmed regardless of the metal versus plastic debate. To truly achieve the coldest air possible, the lines need to be removed and a shut off valve installed ala Motordyne.
- The aluminum tube of the Fujita was consistently cooler at the air sensor location or intake tract 1. Further, the metal cooled FAR faster after the heating period. I've seen this fact in the lab as well where I work. Plastic resists temperature better than metal at first but once hot or cold, it takes over three times as long to return to ambient. After both tests, I couldn't leave my hand on either intake for long as they were BOTH hot. But after ten minutes the Fujita was 22 degrees cooler while the stock plastic had cooled only 6 degrees and was still untouchable.
- The entire engine compartment is pretty warm. I find it hard to believe that there's enough of a difference in the density of oxygen in the temperature differentials between the stock and Fujita intake to claim that either one would more so suffer from heat soak or that there's a power loss. While the Fujita has proven to be an improvement in temperature and power thus far, I believe the big part of the test is yet to come: Will properly insulating the intake protect it from the engine compartment enough to drop the temperature closer to ambient.

Intake concerns - testing
There may be another problem associated with the Fujita equipped cars. Lab flow testing is attached.
While the JWT and Stillen/KN filter restriction levels rise quickly as loading occurs, this is alarming.

R2C Performance is a design, engineering and manufacturing company that produces state-of-the-art intake systems and filters utilizing a patented and proprietary process with testing labs on the premises. Evaluation of competitor performance products began in 2007.
The company history is that of a designer of sophisticated, severe duty military filtration for the last several decades.
Contact from prominent motorsport teams with a desire to resolve their system/filter concerns led to the development of the new street/competition product line including Nissan and Infiniti products.
Filter performance is unmatched in every category of measurement. It completely eliminates the reliance on poor performing oiled cotton gauze, foam and other restrictive synthetics.
Thanks,

he is not a vendor... and the second he acts like a vendor all his posts will be deleted. He is free to comment on what he wants... as long as he is not selling things. Keep that in mind dynamics...

was that a spacer you were talking about? if so Tony said a while back that the 37 motor cant have that added to it... which sucks...
