I own a 2008 nissan sentra 2.0L and i am looking into in purchasing a cold air intake today. Please tell me which brand i should get and whyThank YOU )
If it truly is an older vehicle, i might throw a pint of oil medical care in there next time you like oil. in case you save topping off fairly of adjusting it, that oil keeps to be completely nasty and smoke like hell. maximum States have eased up on emissions testing. undergo in ideas in the adventure that your vehicle is off the line the State loses that license gross sales.
Alright, a quick google search came up with some info. One, the Weapon faRt intake is not a cold air intake, it is a short ram intake, which will suffer from heat soak on warm days, and trust me, heat soak sucks! Two, I have heard of cases where the cheap double cone filters that weapon r uses have come apart, sending the small cone into the throttle body, both blocking it and sticking it open. Not as much of a problem with theirs as it is with the even cheaper eBay ones, but still can happen, that's why I will never trust a double cone filter. There, now you have two good reasons to get the Fujita intake over the weapon r.
If you're DEAD set on actually getting one probably the fujita is nicer looking (than either the dragon or secret weapon intakes). I have a modified secret weapon intake in my car it's a good intake for supercharged cars but the foam filter frankly stinks. In a n/a car.I wouldn't waste the money unless it was a decent v6+ and only if it was a manual with a decently high rev-limit. I wouldn't buy the dragon filters from weapon r because they're dinky. I say this daily but I'll say it again.most factory intakes actually are set up like cold air intakes except they have drop in filters. The real restriction on air flow is not the piping and filter.it's at the throttle and manifold. Even then, you might get MORE air due to the larger diameter piping and higher flow filter but the air will be hotter than with say the stock rubber or plastic or an aftermarket silicone piping. This defeats the purpose because cooler air is more compressed than hotter air meaning you get more air in the combustion cycle with cooler air than hotter air. I know polished steel piping is sexy but on a cold air intake it should be silicone, rubber, or plastic because those materials resist heat better. This is why silicone piping is popular with turbo drivers who mount a front mount intercooler in their car.the material doesn't retain heat from the engine, the intercooler, and from the air itself (heated due to the compressor housing of the turbo being connected to the turbine side). [Plus you can cut it] On something naturally aspirated like an Civic Si or RSX Type-S it might be beneficial because of the variable timing and high rev-limiter, but on a sentra bably not. There.I did it.I complemented not one but two honda products. There's my long spiel. Take it for what it's worth.
You have a break in the exaust system, could be a hole in the system caused by rust or need new gaskets at the joints in the systems. I would expect to see a lot of rust in a 93 honda.
I agree with Kyle J. But I think you should use the money u save and get a small nitrous injection kit and a cemetery plot. If you truly intend on racing that thing and crash it, you've already got a casket. Cold air kits only help when you're at wide open throttle and don't really help bring in cool air. They just sound louder giving you the illusion that you've got more power, Besides, they don't filter the air as well as the stock paper filter despite what the manufacturer says.
