tom i hear you have an intake manifold out now for FI....im wondering if it retains EGR and such? i need to keep all that but still want to upgrade my intake manifold for better flow

: toms got an intake manifold now? hurtinfocus 09-19-2005, 03:23 PM tom i hear you have an intake manifold out now for FI....im wondering if it retains EGR and such? i need to keep all that but still want to upgrade my intake manifold for better flow 1turbofocus 09-19-2005, 06:03 PM No my intakes are for performance and the EGR takes away from performance with pumping super heated air back throught the intake Tom crashmech13 09-21-2005, 01:43 PM how much is one of these intake manifolds? is it for the 2.0 dohc or svt? will the stock throttle body work with it or need diff one? crashmech13 10-07-2005, 09:25 PM how much for the intake manifold? 1turbofocus 10-07-2005, 09:50 PM Till i get my new manifold finished i wont have a price for it Tom CFM Focus 10-08-2005, 12:24 AM Originally posted by 1turbofocus No my intakes are for performance and the EGR takes away from performance with pumping super heated air back throught the intake Tom http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/egr.htm 1turbofocus 10-08-2005, 07:32 AM Quote "If EGR is on during idle, stumble and even stalling will likely result. If EGR is on during hard acceleration, low power (from reduced air/fuel volume) is the result. [:)][:)][:)][:)][:)][:)]*This is why i dont use the EGR , In many cases the EGR systems go out and you have something else to worry about , If the EGR was to fail under boost at WOT it could very easy cause Deto and loose an engine Quote " At part load, lean mixtures for economy create high combustion chamber temperatures and without EGR, these conditions not only create Nox, they also foster pre-ignition and pinking." [:)][:)][:)][:)][:)][:)]*Altho what he is saying is true there are ways around this with proper tuning and or VCT look at the SVT Focus and the ZX2 , No EGR systems installed on either as well as many other cars for years , EGR and Performance do not go hand in hand Tom Spanky6935 10-10-2005, 02:27 AM Tom I am interested to hear what measures you take to prevent NOx. I am not doubting your abilities but rather am intriqued. hurtinfocus 10-12-2005, 01:01 PM when can we expect pricing and numbers for this intake manifold? im thinking about designing a independant TB's setup over the winter with a plenum BEFORE the TB's. i know its gonna be extremely complicated and a PITA to tune, but the advantages are crazy and a local guy can help me with the calulations, and it seems no one has a good enough/decent priced alternative to just designing something for your own app. | |
