Optimization admisson air Vantage
#48
Damn, that is one serpentine pathway for the air to travel! I agree that a more direct path would probably be better. Regardless, I'm surprised that the stock inlet is so small. Seems like a bottleneck of the inlet system. Then again, I would think that AM optimized it based on the fluid dynamics.

As far as intake systems go, that's an excellent design that would be difficult to improve upon.

But the NZ1200's power band is similar to this car;
(this is a customer's drag car we built and completed a few weeks ago)

This car is driven on the street with no issues, and it is capable of low 8-second passes in the quarter mile. NZ1200s will not be as fast in the quarter mile, as they are not setup to be purposed drag cars, they are setup to be well-balanced in all performance areas.
But we realize you do not always need 1,200bhp on the street, so the vehicle is equiped with a POD (Power On Demand) system providing selectable 600bhp, 800bhp and 1,200bhp power levels. Honestly, 600bhp will put the car in the ten second range, so that's all that's really needed on the street.
When National Speed's shop NZ1200 is completed, I'll certainly post street driving footage. I think top-speed test runs might be required for... Uhhh... Data purposes.
