Abstract
An airflow diverter and replacement air intake plenum is disclosed that provides an increase in the air speed and airflow within the intake plenum of an automobile. The increase is the result of providing appropriately sized and shaped apparatus to smooth out the airflow within the plenum and eliminate turbulence that increase pressure within the plenum and cause a restriction of air movement. The diverter is configured in a triangular shape to divert the air from a single input port into two output ports. The apparatus is ideally configured for use in a Porsche, but can be configured for other automobiles and engines.
Claims20
A flow diverter for use within a plenum comprising:
- an air flow diverter specifically sized for installation within an existing intake manifold plenum of an automobile configured in a triangular profile to divert air directed onto the apex of the diverter to smooth the air flow onto the apex of the diverter to the tapered ends of the flow diverter to Increase air speed and air flow.
An intake manifold plenum for a vehicle comprising:
- an inverted “Y” shaped air intake plenum for a vehicle located after the air filter that including a single main air intake port that ducts airflow to two opposing ports wherein the profile of the two opposing ports approximates the profile of the air intake port to increase the air speed and flow through the intake plenum.
A replacement intake plenum comprising:
- an intake plenum intended for replacement of an existing intake plenum wherein the replacement plenum provides mounting holes for a throttle body different in size than the factory throttle body.
