What would happen if I unscrewed my intake and let it idle with no intake, just straight to the throttle?

 

run like poo..if it would run at all


you gotta have a maf

 

and you could inject some foreign objects into the engine......that is why the "filter" is there.....to "filter" out things that shouldn't go into the engine....

 

crappy

 

I would not recomend doing that.

 

I was just curious because I've read about various mods to remove obstructions to the airway to the engine (ex: parts of the MAF), and I was wondering if anyone ran with just an open throttle, wasn't really thinking about doing it

 

you might win a Darwin award

 

Your 3.0 would hate you..that's what. hah

 

You would lose the function of The MAF.

Past that, from everything I have studied, you would lose low rpm hp and gain a little at high rpms.

There was a guy trying to get a speed record at the salt flats in a 4cyl. He had it in a Y configuration and could change the flow from the intake to a very short runner while driving.

 

That's a big No No. Mine shuts off, too much air intake!!

 

the only think i would do is the MAF mod... do a search for that and i think its on grigg's cardomain page too
