OK, we're talking at cross purposes, that's what I meant, but to the air inlet. The airbox is part of a tuned intake system.

Looks a little dehydrated. Oh wait, sorry, wrong golden fluid.

Now as a petrolhead I don't get that. I want to drive my cars. If I didn't I'd buy a Nissan Juke.

About cold starts killing cars. My first house was on a very steep street. One of my neighbours had a new Nissan something that he used to just fire up and shoot off up the hill, no warm up. Engine was f**ked in a year. I kid you not. The rest of us had mechanical sympathy, our cars and bikes...

I'll volunteer to test one. Hint hint, nudge nudge. 😁

I think it does. Intake tuning involves everything from the air inlet to the valves.

1st start of the day in cold temps, I'll idle it until some heat is showing on the gauge. Otherwise I'll just let the fast idle reduce and go. I'll never cane any engine until it's showing normal driving temps

I'm guessing the target market is more interested in lateral G than longitudinal.

The theory of intake length tuning is sound. Some bikes have variable length intake tubes in the airbox. But I doubt spacers are that sophisticated.

Coolant does evaporate slowly in normal use. But, unless it's a trick of the light, I think that looks a bit off too.

I did see something similar a couple of months ago, I can't remember the tuner, but it might have involved the Steeda CAI system.

You and me both.

As i understand it, you can't replicate on a dyno the intake airflow in actual driving. So any differences shown on a dyno run may not occur in the real world.

That makes me an idiot squared. Detector plus 120

I'd rather not while driving. What I mean is that cars we've had with instant consumption display it shows as a constantly changing figure in line with throttle position etc. Neither display in the Mustang does that. It's just a figure that slowly changes over time ie, the average. OK, I just...

It's not that critical. It'll be fine. During the mass supression of our population in 2021 my first service on that car was 4 months overdue. There was no concern from the dealer, and no one was doing high mileages anyway.

OK, I'm an idiot. But I was just experimenting with a new car. Honest Officer, it's true.

HTF is that legal. The car would be impounded here.

Neither seem to be instant in any way.
