paulr33 Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 it's an old urban myth, it wont make the car run better or worse. you can certainly do it if you wish Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/109750-afm-in-plumbing/#findComment-2022224 Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl h Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 used for getting a smooth idle if the car has cams (mild or agressive), and so you can vent a bov to atmosphere without an uber rich mixture. i run a blowthru setup on my rb20 and it works a treat.

JimX Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 The air after the intercooler is invariably hotter than the air coming into the airbox, unless you've got some sort of refrigerator as an intercooler!
