So I was wondering what were some of your ideas? From inventions to politics. Anything original or not heard of much.
Personally I got into cars and engines last year and while thinking of the turbo chargers many people put on cars I came up with An idea.
Turbo chargers cost thousands of dollars and even more to put in your car.
All they do is run off the exhaust of your car to suck in and compress air so the fuel to air mix in the engine is lean.
I figured out something I think may work.
You know when driving if you stick your hand out of the window the rush of air is quite cool and violent. I thought "how could we use this?" and figured it out.
A funnel like device which is wide and narrow so it would fit in the grill space of your car. Attached to that is a length of pipe that carries air from the front of the car to the air box, or after market air intake. Of corse filters are needed and would be added in the right spots. A cut off valve would be placed in the pipes for when it's raining to prevent hydro lock, which is bad.
The rush of air would be forced down the tubes by the wide funnel and into the air intake, forcing it into the engine just like a tribe charger. Also an intercooler could be used to Cool down the air more to make the effect even better.
Well what of my idea? Any advice or tips are welcome.
What about yours? Share!

You mean ram air injection which has been around for years???
Some of my ideas:
idiot ray - for zapping idiots (instead of a safety you have a switch with settings of zap and kill)
parking adjuster - for helping out as*holes who clearly need help

What I am doing is trying to make a affordable way of air induction for smaller cars. I will be making more then one version of it. Also mine is placed in front of the air conditioner or to rather side, depending on what kind of car you have.
My sc2 has a lot of open space on it's nose an I will be placing it there, a normal ram air injection would be on the hood.
And I never heard if a ram air injection system before you posted somthing, so to me the idea was my own
