Intake Elbow

For some performance enthusiasts, Iit’s unimaginable that for a car with an increased horsepower output to put in a high mpg (miles per gallon) average.you’ll get more miles per gallon by increasing your engine’s horsepower. Such talk benefits performance freaks more than eco-modders. Why? Because it’s too good to be trueis definitely too good to be true, right.? But is it? Well, not with a specially designed intake elbowthat may be the case before the intake elbow came into the picture.

The aftermarket elbow is especially designed to reduce airflow restrictions to the engine. Think about it. By improving the air flow, you’re reducing the amount of work your engine has to muster to suck in airthe engine exerts less effort at taking air in. This helps your car’s engine save power. And with the engine’s power gains comes improved fuel economy.

The elbow can also cut down backpressure, resulting in lower exhaust gas temperatures. That’s what a smoother elbow does to intake air entering your engine. Since the stock elbow is too restrictive, your engine will experience power gains from a less restrictive elbow. And with this power gain comes better fuel economy.

Mind the figures, folks. They’re just averages. It really all depends on how heavy your right foot is. But the power gain is there, for sure. With an aftermarket intake elbow, you’ll even notice improvements when towing or going up hills. The elbow’s smooth radius really helps in improving engine performance.

And you won’t have to pay hundreds of dollars. It’s a low-cost upgrade.
