    Smooth ducts better than corrugated

    I know the flexible aluminum drier vent ducting is easy to work with, but if you can use PVC or some other smooth walled ducting you'll have faster airflow due to the smooth inside surface. As an example, I've read that highly corrugated drain pipe has 9 times the flow resistance of smooth...

    Airflow in ducts with different shaped openings

    Here are the airflow efficiencies I found in a library book for smooth duct openings with different shapes. (Ignore all the dots, I had to add them to get the solid lines to position correctly.) I thought you guys making your own cold air intakes and ductwork would find this useful. _________...

    I haven't seen or, to my knowledge, used this additive, though my Mobil 1 may contain some. I found a chemical structure for this compound and it looks like it can break down and release MoS2, the slippery black moly we're familiar with. I believe it has good lube qualities, especially for cold...

    Looking for air filter testing

    I have designed my own air filter that seems to have advantages some others don't but I have no way to test/evaluate it. I think it should flow better than some and also have a high filter efficiency, maybe better than most. I'm concentrating on efficiency and not compromising airflow in the...
