Ae92 4af Intake Question

[carbonboy]

Nothing you put on top of that carburettor is going to out perform the orginal intake. The engine was designed with performance of economy in mind. That is the engine is at its best when you leave it alone. The best upgrade for you would be a manual transmission.

 

That intake system performs plenty of tasks...

cold air intake

intake pressure balancer

air suction valve (balances exaust back pressure and intake vacuum).

warm air intake valve (cold starts)

Crankcase intake

...to name a few

 

Of all the f@$king around I did with my 4af-c nothing performed better than the original intake setup. Considering what you've given up, you definately need some form of cold air access to that pod filter.

 

Sucking in warm air from the engine bay isnt all that great... :(

 

Sound I can't help you with, great way to attract the wrong attention though. Throttle response...would probably be better with the standard setup on it.

You just need to block off the air suction valve, and any other vacuum lines that run from the original intake setup.

Get the 90 degree elbow, the reducer and your pod and pipe and your away. Most pod filters use 3 inch fittings and the top of the carby is smaller. I would also run the pod towards the front passenger side as far away from the engine as possible.

 

Cool air is the key.

thanks mate i appreciate ur help.

hey mate i finally found an idea for the pod filter.i will be posting pictures soon.

You basically want to mount your airfilter in a spot to draw primarily cold air but also avoid road water like puddles.

 

I ran a pod behind the front bar tucked up in the wheel arch, on cold nights especially i was geting a nice induction raw and lots of cold air!

Hi All,

 

I'm in the process of modifying the intake on my 1991 AE92 4AF (carb) corolla. I started to pull the stock system out and came across some mechanism attached to the air filter housing. It appear to be connected to the cooling system (maybe for cold start assistance etc.) Pic attached.

 

 

 

The question is, can I just remove this and assuming it's part of the cooling line just bridge it out completely to maintain coolant flow. I am working towards a 32/36 weber setup.

 

Thanks

I would like to know if it's possible for you to send me some photos with all your vacuum lines on the carburetor and distributor areas and any vacuum line areas as I'm having some issues with my vacuum line connection can't send the photos and contact me on WhatsApp # 17844321913..please I would appreciate the help

Sigh...  2009 he posted that, 15years ago.. Do you still own the car you had 15years ago?

If you hover your mouse over his name it tells you he last visited in August 2009, so I don't think he'll see your post.
