Questions for the Org

I am a newbie. I'd like to know from the org what does "WOT" mean ?
Is it Wire on Throttle ?

Second question. You guys that are doing dyno's on your car. Do you take this somewhere to be done or doing it with equipment at home ?

Thirdly. I have a 2002 auto, throttle is intermittant in response and great response during low end torque. Has anyone with an auto experienced this or is this the hesitation problem I have read existing with some 6 speeds ?

Last but not least. will a CAI add power to low end torque ?



any answers to any of the questions are appreciated

WOT = wide open throttle

Speed shops usually have dynos... it really isn't something that a person would have in their garage although they could

When do you experience the lag in throttle? Mid range? High rpms?

CAI will not have a huge impact on low end... should help mid range and high end much more.

Try the search feature for some of your questions. You will find many more responses that way

i thought CAI only increased low end torque, helps a bit mid range,
but suffers loss in high end.

compared to what? A cone intake? A CAI would be better than stock in the mid-range and high end....
