- A more efficient combustion process facilitated by the increased airflow can also contribute to better fuel economy. With a richer air-to-fuel ratio, the engine can burn fuel more completely, reducing wasted fuel and improving mileage.
- By providing cleaner and cooler air to the engine, an air intake kit can help reduce the risk of engine damage caused by contaminants or overheating.
The air intake system starts with the air collector that feeds cool air to the air box. The airbox houses the air filter. Air is then drawn through a fixed tube that houses the mass airflow sensor, which measures the amount of air flowing through. The air then heads through flexible tubing and a plastic resonator before going to the electronically controlled throttle body. The ECU controls the throttle body, and primarily takes its input commands from the driver through the accelerator pedal. It also houses the throttle position sensor, so the ECU knows what position the butterfly valve is opened at. The throttle body is controlled by a small gear train and a DC electric motor. After the throttle body, airheads into the air intake plenum, which collects the air and splits it into individual ports for each cylinder. The intake plenum bolts to the air intake manifold, which have specially designed runners that allow for the mixture of air and fuel just before entering the cylinder head, above the valves.
