right whats the main advantages / disadvantages of each one on an SU and does
it matter in how long the ram pipe is, or is it just to do with how much space you have
around the bulkhead?

small ram pipe (stub stack) inside a k&n filter

yeh i have got one but because I have been fitting a HIF 44 on it today the previous HIF 38 filter and stub stack I have doesnt fit on it unless I do some customizing. So was jsut curious if a open air ram pipe would be worth getting.

Hi Wynnston,

I post a similar topic a little while ago regarding air filters and ram pipes, might be worth a look

ermm no not my favourite hobby!
guessing that alot of rubbish gets in it then? so why do they have ram pipes then, is it just
for performance race cars to get the most out of them?

[Bungle]

just ram pipes were used on race cars where performance was the main thing they were after

filers are a lot better these days and don't restrict the engine

I would have thought a rampipe with one of those pipercross foam socks would be ok


just a to start in the mornings and even worse when its cold

Cool are they Any good ?

I love induction roar so that dont bother me.

[samsfern]

i realised a very slight improvement, but i was running with no filters or anything before. And yes they do roar like dinosaurs did, lol

vizards book has been my life recently hence a good set up on the 38, K and N with stub stack, until I kinda broke it and had to replace it with the HIF 44.
Am I right thinking the size of ram pipes alters things?
Thanks for the replies, I'm just doing some research so the more info the better.

short ones work better at higher revs, long ones are better at lower revs.

Bit random post

These filters i found look nice just wish they had them over hear plenty room inside for a sub stack and looks like they would filter well to and they look mighty tasty to.
