who are you referring to? people making this a bigger deal that it is, or us ricers

 

i think this is the coolest thing on earth! i have this mod on my ford explorer and it cost me nothing! all i did was have to run into a deer and he did it for me! he also widened my fender gaps to allow for more airflow!

 

nice! wide body kit... fo free...

 

Hey man. The hood spacer mod is awesome, right? It sounds like you got a sweet deal with hitting that deer. It's almost as awesome as running a cutout on a supercharged car that's obviously pushing assloads of horsepower. Yeah man! It not like supercharged car run better with more back pressure or anything! And I'm sure that 3" dp into a 2.5" catback does wonders for power.

Moral of this story: shut your mouth cause you do **** that sounds retarded too. At least what I did actually helps my car

 

don't make fun of others when you don't know exactly what you are talking about. no offense

 

I like it

 

it'd look better if the hood was lined up properly :P: to each his own that's the end of me in this thread 14 pages is enough ... lets put this one to bed...

 

sooooo, your saying a supercharged car runs better with backpressure, but that a 3 inch downpipe into a 2.5 exhaust isnt going to create , what is it, backpressure?
is that right?

 

the lift on the white car is too much, but it's fresh reguardless.

 

white cobalt has a mini farter lmao

 

looks like the ark grip.

 

Did anyone actually test to see if this works? As in seeing if their engine temps were lower? I can see maybe doing this for track days or something. But if you ride around all the time like this, you deserve to get laughed at.

 

looks dumb

 

this just looks hideous in my opinion haha i get laughed at because i drive a "supped up cavielier" my freinds always say **** about my car yet it beats a lot of cars

 

it's been proven to drop underhood temps to at least 5-7 degrees. but as far as IAT's it doesn't help at all.

 

White car would look nice if the hood fit properly. Hehe

 

Well that's not enough to make me wanna do it

 

I just posted earlier that I did a before and after and after an equal amount of driving, my engine bay was ~20* cooler with the hood spaced

 

ur engine bay was cooler. Nice ur valve cover and oil dipstick thank u. But was ur inlet temps different? probobly not.

 

Haha...and it looks like dog ass. The whole car I mean.

 

i think the reason people like the white cobalt is b/c its a decent lookin car. i think ur liking the car more then the hood propped up like an idiot.



god i love talking **** in this thread

 

I couldn't measure my IATs but I'm assuming that since I measured the temps around the sc, the heat soak into the h/e, radiator, intake pipe and manifold were all less. Especially since the air is flowing now and not just sitting there so 20* cooler could result in much more heat loss on the metals of the car

I'll measure IATs and let you know

 

nah, his is too much. mine doesn't have a gap all the way down the hood like his does.

and i love reading it

btw, gestapo. i'm heading out to wilmington next weekend most likely to stay with my friend who goes there. there is an a/x event sunday, you gonna head out?

 

interesting

 

my cut out netted me 4whp at the wheels which is a **** ton more then your washers did and back pressure is only good for tq. the less back pressure the more hp the more backpressure the more tq. and the 3in cut out is on the 3in dp, just so you understand. next time do research, it helps.

moral of the story: dont be stupid by not doing reasearch.
