In other words, why do these deposits concentrate in Australia instead of other places? I want to know the reason in terms of geology. It may have something to do with the breaking up of a supercontinent, but I‘m not sure.
Nope. The cold air intake creates a need for a richer condition, needing more fuel.
yes it save gas, you can also hear a hizzing sound when you step the gas, i have mine installed and it save 20% gas or maybe more, let me explain lean mixture and rich mixture when you installed air intake you making your car in lean tmixture condition meaning more air than fuel get it. that means save gas. but the downside your check engine might come on coz car this time is program to balance air and gas if computer see change it will turn the check engine . but most of the time it wont turn on, but for me it save lots of gas by 20-30%
if you think about it a cold air intake only lets you force more air into your cylinders because without a cold air intake the air is warm/hot hot air expands so less air gets into the cylinder adding more air up sets the 14.7/1 ratio of air to fuel so in tern you have to add more fuel thus increasing the amount of fuel you use and the cost of the the amount of fuel you use is sky rocketed hope this helps the only reason i would get a cold air intake is for performance vehicles but for a daily driver its not worth the hassle
Australia is largely composed of Precambrian Shield, specifically rocks that are categorised as Proterozoic at a time before the large continental masses started moving around. At that time, there were a large number of rocks that were highly rich in iron oxides that were formed. Africa, South America, India, Greenland North America are similarly rich because these area also have rocks that were formed at a similar time. Bauxite is different! This is formed by the tropical weathering of certain rocks that leave aluminium oxides behind. Since most of Australia has experienced tropical climate, it is a suitable environment for bauxite deposits.
