The Power Intake is the premier air filter designed to create
pure horsepower. The intake funnels used in racing machines
take advantage of a characteristic where air travels along the
side of the side of surfaces. However, the center portion of
the funnel is virtually unused. It is this concept that gave
birth to the Dual Funnel design. A primary funnel on the top
portion of the air cleaner was inserted to channel the air flow
directly into the lower funnels at the base of the cleaner.
This design was a huge success on the former Super Intake model.
The Power Intake took this design and improved the flow characteristics.
New funnel design, element material and air flow channeling
characteristics make the Power Intake one of the most efficient
air cleaners on the market today. By constructing the upper
and lower funnel from a highly durable injected resin, engineers
were able to construct the ideal shaped funnel previously not
possible with the stainless steel material. Funnel shapes focused
on increasing air speed without changing the flow direction
of the intake air. The result is a high speed and smooth flow
of air into the intake. The lower funnel has been engineered
at a 14 degree curve for maximum efficiency. Also, the lower
funnel position has been made even closer to the base of the
cleaner to reduce drag and eliminate any “dead spots”
within the cleaner.
The Power Intake incorporates a newly developed material
(layer filter of dry density fibers) which improves the element
density. This allows maximum protection from foreign materials
entering the engine. Compared with past model, the Power Intake
has also succeeded in decreasing its ventilation resistance
by about 10% (pressure loss) for maximum performance and protection.
The Power Intake is dry-type filter and is trouble free. Some
of the problems associated with wet type cleaners, such as
oil sticking to the air flow meter, are a thing of the past.
The Power Intake is basically maintenance free. Filter replacement,
when necessary, can be done at a very low cost. |
