TarrTech e36 Intake

[Twinz]

Moranor. This is not a DIY nor a R&D thread. Comments by those that want to redesign your product that had many hours and conceptual thinking gone into it is out of place. Please dont entertain it; we are enjoying the new products you bringing to the forum members. This particular product as you may well know has sold a plenty in C.T.

I am suggesting that you clean up this thread since it is a sponsor subforum and if members want to debate the colour of the intake they can PM you.

My intention was not a redesign someone else's product it was merely to make a comment/input based on my own personal experience and measurement that I have done. Seeing as it is a forum with open discussion advice and comments I did not think it would be a problem, obviously I was mistaken.

:sorry:

If we can use aluminum on the next production run we will definitely look at it as an improvement on the existing design because of weight...

but I am unsure of sanks physics on this one because stainless most definately conducts less heat, but if we can polish aluminium and powder coat the inside it will be a win... will definitely look into it

Sorry I was just giving aluminium as an example (as we mostly work with it so we have lots of bits of it laying around) Yes stainless is definitely the metal to use in this kind op application in term of its thermal conductivity.

Twinz I agree this is not the best place to discuss this... but I am a firm believer that every product can be improved so sanks input can most definitely prove useful in the future...

Im sure BMW when they finish a car do not sit back and say its perfect... what they probably say is we could have done better here and maybe we should spend more time developing that part...

its that constant push for improvement that makes a company great and im sure TarrTech will deliver even greater products in the future...

This intake works great as is can it be made better? TarrTech sure will try :rollsmile:

Im sure BMW when they finish a car do not sit back and say its perfect... what they probably say is "how can we make it cheaper" and maybe we should spend more time "getting cheaper components"...

There you go fixed :rollsmile:

In addition very noble of you to accept input from the forum, clearly the sign of a supplier who believes in improving his service.:thumbs:

Is this a replica of the AFE cai for E36

No it is not, the heat shield shape was based primarily on their shape though.

Just to add to this...

the AFE CAI was one of the intake systems looked at when designing the TarrTech intake, but many design changes were made to improve fitment, performance and cost while they are similar because they both have to fit the same space they are also very different...

every aspect was looked at looked at and scrutinized during the prototype phase and improvements were made

It looks good. I was quoted +/- R4.5k for the AFE one, I forget the name of the importer though.

The afe ones are not that expensive, but shipping cost are just crazy

One of the primary reasons we decided to manufacture locally

FreeRider imported an AFE one to look at and i think it came in at 5.5k at the end :yuck:

naidu_lu I actually fitted the e36 one to my car yesterday and it fits almost perfect... just need to make some minor alterations and it will be 100% so hopefully the e46 one will not be far off :rollsmile:
