![]() Using a larger radius, like 3/4", broadens out the resonant pressure wave rpm range, but the compression boosting pressure wave is greatly diminished and almost unnoticed by the engine. In the real world, on high-rpm IR IC engine, using a minimum amount of inlet radius gives the best wave strength and a power boost of 2% to 4% over a 3000 to 3500 rpm range. Because the greatest losses to flow occur near the valve seat, actual overall gain from any improvement of the entry flow would be much less. This means that total engine airflow would not increase by the amount suggested by these figures, which apply only to the entry alone, as the inlet end is never the smallest or most restrictive part of the system. In simpler terms, Velocity stacks help for smoother airflow. There is always some attempt to provide some radius at the entry. Velocity stacks are designed to increase the volumetric efficiency of an engine by allowing for more air to be sucked in whilst being able to act as a resonating pipe that adjusts the pressure pulses inside the intake plenum. In practice these latter types of entry are never used for engine intakes. The flow coefficient of a perfect entry would be 1.0 while the coefficient for a sharp edged entry would be 0.6 and a re-entrant plain pipe 0.5. The acceleration of air flow into a duct is inherently a highly efficient process and the difference between even the crudest radius inlet, and the most aerodynamic shape possible is slight, amounting to no more than a few percent. A longer inlet pipe will create a later intake pressure wave that will help keep the air in the chamber until the intake valve closes. but, it is actually that the intake valve is closing too late and the combustion chamber is simply overfilling and blowing back out the intake port, before the intake valve closes. It is commonly related that "stand off" (air-fuel mix that gets pushed back out of the port, usually at full throttle / low rpm) is somehow captured by installing a longer intake pipe (stack). Most current aftermarket stacks are designed to be run "in" the airbox and a company that does research well will have some applications that have all the same length and some applications that have differing lengths of stacks on different cylinders. Laminar air results in higher power figures and reduces lag. The length of the stack is known to have a direct effect on a particular engine's boosted power range. Vibrant Bellmouth Velocity Stacks and Filters raise intake efficiency for turbocharged engines. A properly tuned intake tract produces a rather audible intake noise under high airflow conditions - that is commonly "untuned" to allow the vehicle to pass EPA and DOT noise regulations. OEM automotive manufacturers have many regulations to adhere to. In amateur and professional racing, aftermarket velocity stacks are often used, as rules allow, and gains in the order of 2% to 4% can be obtained when inlet radii and stack lengths are optimized for that engine. Improves the air flow into the carburetor to increase induction efficiency and increase horsepower. Modern fuel injection systems with a plenum and single air inlet typically incorporate some sort of radiused entrance, designed to improve power, based on air flow increases. Modified engines often have the original air box and associated ducting removed and velocity stacks are installed as accessories. Each R3 / MT-03 Velocity Stack is made from a chemical-resistant compound capable of withstanding gasoline and other harsh chemicals found in the extreme environment of your Yamaha's engine.Modern engines universally have tuned intake tract volumes and associated resonance frequencies, designed to provide higher than atmospheric intake air pressure while the intake valves are open - increasing the density of the trapped air in the combustion chamber (higher compression). Installation is an easy bolt-on process, which means that real-world horsepower gains are easy to achieve and leave the ability to return to the stock setup if the need ever arises. That's a significant performance boost that can help you land your race boots on the podium. All of that work has resulted in a 5% peak power gain on a properly tuned engine when compared to the same bike using OEM velocity stacks. Through an extensive research and testing process, we were able to determine the most effective lengths for overall power increase using the natural resonant frequencies of the R3 / MT-03 intake to develop the greatest volumetric efficiency. TST headquarters is home to multiple R3 race bikes, and in our quest for track day domination, we have designed a simple and easy way of adding real performance and power to your Yamaha R3 / MT-03 engine. Developed through extensive research and testing by the TST Industries WORX Racing Programĥ% peak power gains are expected when installed on a properly tuned R3 / MT-03 over an identical bike using OEM velocity stacks Description.Manufactured from chemical-resistant material to withstand gasoline and other harsh chemicals.No modification required for installation.Simple and easy installation that does not require any special tools.
