AIRAID SynthaMax Cool Air Dam Intake System

Why would anyone need a cool air intake system?  To any gear head that might seem like a silly question, but you have to keep in mind that not everyone knows all there is to know about engines and performance. 

The thing is – in order to get more horsepower and more torque from your engine, better breathing is necessary.  In a nutshell, that means that you need to be able to get more cool air to the engine in order to see gains in performance. 

In an effort to completely understand this, you really need to get back to the basics.  Essentially, an engine is a huge air pump.  Therefore, improving the efficiency of the air flow is what is necessary to increase the amount of power you get. 

When it comes to stock intakes, there are a few main restrictions to the airflow.  These are found in the paper air filter that is inside the system and in the actual intake box itself as well as the inlet that allows the air to get to that box.

The easiest and best way to get gains in torque and horsepower while at the same time you are improving the air flow to your gas engine is by installing one of the SynthaMax air intake systems made by AIRAID.  These systems have been designed by computers and then Dyno tested before being tuned to be able to extract to maximum performance for your specific application.

The Secret Weapon

This is really no secret – aside from improving air flow to the engine, the air that gets to the engine with these systems is cooler than what the engine would normally get.  Why is that important?  Scientifically speaking – hot air is not as dense as cold air.  That basically means that there are more molecules of oxygen in cod air than there are in hot air.  More oxygen molecules means that the combustion is more complete which then translates into more power.

These intake systems by AIRAID replace the factory installed – and very restrictive – air box with what is called a CAD (Cold Air Dam), computer designed one.  This separates the hot air in the engine compartment from the filter while also getting more of the cooler air from outside to the filter.  This charge of cooler, denser air is the secret to getting more from your engine.

Most of the intake systems made by AIRAID use your existing OE mounting points to make installation easy and they are also smog-legal.  In addition to that, all of the AIRAID products are made from only the best materials and they are also all covered by the AIRAID No Hassle lifetime warranty.

Airaid Throttle Body Spacer

PowerAid

The PowerAid is a throttle body spacer made by Airaid features a patented Helix Bore that is the cause of a spinning action that occurs in the air that is coming in as it passes through the actual throttle body.  The turbulence in this air flow means that you get a fuel atomization that is enhanced which then results in a combustion that is more complete as well as a greater efficiency in the engine itself.  In plain English – massive gains in the areas of horsepower, torque and fuel economy.  Some good things to know about this particular throttle body spacer are that it:

·         Is compatible with any fuel grade

·         Will not void the warranty on your new Jeep

·         Is street legal in all 50 states

While there are many manufacturers out there that make products that are meant to improve the air flow to an engine, there is only one that has been innovative enough to design a way to improve the flow of air once it actually gets TO the engine – Airaid.  Their innovation in this area is called the PowerAid.  This component is approximately an inch thick and is meant to be inserted between the intake manifold and the throttle body itself.  Featuring the patented and Airaid exclusive Helix Bore, it creates a spinning sort of action in the air while it passes through the area of the throttle body.  This spinning action forces the molecules in the air to first organize and then reach and maintain a high velocity.  This is maintained until the air reaches the combustion chamber.  Once there, it improves combustion and as a result, the efficiency of the engine is also improved.  You gain torque, horsepower and even fuel economy as a direct result of this.

Airaid MXP Series SynthaMax Cold Air Intake

This MXP Series intake system made by Airaid puts a massive 360º air filter – also made by Airaid – that has a fittingly massive inlet in your stock location.  However, it houses it in an air box that is made from polyethylene that has been roto-molded and seals right up against your hood – effectively creating an enclosed space.  This air box has air inlets that are simply monstrous and these have been positioned in such a way that they only allow the coolest air from outside into the box.  By doing this, the air filter is then able to force massive amounts of cooler – and therefore denser air – to your engine which then results in you getting more torque and horsepower as well as an overall improved performance.

·         These systems have been designed by CAD programs and then they are dyno tested for your specific application

·         With this system in your rig you can improve not just your torque and horsepower but also the overall performance of your engine

·         The use of the molded air box means that the air filter stays isolated from the engine compartment and therefore from the heat coming off the engine.  It has air inlets that have been placed strategically so that only the coolest air is allowed into the air box

·         This system improves the overall air flow to the engine

An increase in the air low to your engine means that you will automatically increase your torque and your horsepower.  However, if that increase in the air flow also happens to be colder – and as a result, denser – then you also get an engine that is more powerful.  See, the cooler the air is, the denser the molecules in it are and this leads to combustion that is enhanced which results in greater output from your engine.

SynthaMax Filter vs. SynthaFlow Filter

The SynthaMax filter made by Airaid is an air filter that is not oiled.  This is the more traditional type of filter.  The SynthaFlow filters made by Airaid are actually oiled filters that you can wash, re-oil and then reuse.

Airaid Filters

For those who are looking to get more in terms of performance and power from their Jeeps, Airaid products are exactly what you need.  Airaid focuses all of their attention on making performance air intake systems and components for all sorts of vehicles including Jeeps.  They got their start as recently as 1997 when they started developing and making air intake systems for crossovers and light trucks.  Since their inception, Airaid continues with both the innovations and the growth of the company as they broaden their range of products.

When it comes to getting your engine the air it needs, there are no such things as insignificant components.  Even HEMIs won’t give you their all if they don’t have access to the proper amount of cool, clean air.  When you want more in terms of torque and horsepower, don’t look for a whole new, larger engine – look at maximizing the one you have with an Airaid air filter.  In 2002 Airaid was a pioneer in the field with composite filters.  This was when they introduced the SynthaFlow series air filters.  These filters deliver an ideal fusion of filtration and air flow.

The filters that Airaid makes are comprised of several layers of a cotton gaze.  These layers are bolstered by a layer of SynthaFlow material.  This is a fiber material that is synthetic and is sort of like the last line of defense in keeping contaminating particles from getting through the filter and into the engine.  This material filters on a micron level and traps the tiniest of particles that are often missed by the cotton gauze.  By using the cotton gauze in conjunction with the SynthaFlow material you get filtration that is supreme without having to sacrifice your air flow in the process.  In addition to this, the filters are cased in a polyurethane material that will not shrink or crack due to heat exposure.  All Airaid filters come with a lifetime warranty.

Air filters made by Airaid have a construction that is superior to others on the market.  They also have the best warranty in the industry.  Combine those two things and you have the best air filters in the world.  They allow for increased air flow while filtering the air at a more precise level than any other filter.  This results in greater protection for your engine and an enhanced performance.
