How does an air intake system work?

An air intake system typically begins with an air intake at the front of the vehicle, which captures and channels air into the system. As the air enters, it passes through an air filter that removes contaminants like dirt and debris. A mass airflow sensor then measures the incoming air, sending this data to the engine's computer to regulate the fuel-to-air ratio. Some systems may also include a resonator or tube to smooth airflow and reduce noise. Finally, the filtered and measured air enters the throttle body, which controls the amount of air entering the engine based on the driver's accelerator input. This air then mixes with fuel in the combustion chamber, where it ignites and provides power to drive the engine.

Will installing an aftermarket air intake system void my vehicle's warranty?

Installing an aftermarket air intake system typically won't void a warranty, but it’s always best to consult with your vehicle manufacturer or dealership to be certain.

Will upgrading my air intake system affect

Upgrading your air intake system can potentially affect emissions. While a well-designed system can improve engine efficiency and performance, it can also alter the air-fuel ratio, leading to changes in emissions levels. Modifying your engine's computer or making excessive modifications can further impact emissions. To minimize negative effects, choose a reputable air intake system, avoid extreme modifications, and have your vehicle inspected after installation to ensure emissions compliance.

What is the difference between a Short Ram and Cold Air intake?

Short ram and cold air intakes are both designed to improve engine airflow, but they differ in their placement, air source, performance, and cost. Short ram intakes are located near the engine and draw warmer air, while cold air intakes are placed outside the engine compartment and draw cooler air. Cold air intakes generally offer more significant performance gains, especially in warmer climates, but they are also more expensive due to their complexity.
