Does tunnel ram make more power?
Not only did the tunnel ram improve the peak power numbers, but the impressive induction system elevated to power and torque curves from 6000 rpm to 7400 rpm. Basically, the tunnel ram offered more power throughout the tested rev range.
What is a tunnel ram good for?
Tunnel ram intakes have the highest horsepower potential of all the manifold designs. The large, open plenum and straight, equal-length runners are the least restrictive. This means they can flow the most air. Tunnel rams also have a wider operating range than other types of manifolds.
Can you run a tunnel ram on the street?
This isn’t to say that any tunnel-ram is great on the street. The race-style, low-rise tunnel-rams do tend to sacrifice low-end torque; it’s the high-rise units like the Edelbrock TR1Y (shown) and the Weiand Hi-Ram series that are street-oriented with longer runners.

What’s a tunnel ram?
tunnel ram (plural tunnel rams) A type of high-performance intake manifold designed to straighten the pathway of fuel/air mixture, speeding the flow to the combustion chambers.
What is a tunnel ram carb?
A tunnel ram is a high-performance intake manifold designed to straighten the path of the fuel/air mix – speeding the flow to the combustion chamber. Faster flow means more fuel/oxygen mix rammed into the combustion chamber for a boost in horsepower.

What is a high rise intake?
High rise intakes are taller than low rise. High rise is a general term to describe an intake. There is no standard height where low rise intakes end and high rise intakes begin. High rise intakes are better at building horsepower in the upper RPM range and usually have a wider power band.
What is the difference between the Holley sniper and Terminator?
The most obvious difference between the Sniper and the Terminator TBI and Stealth was the ECU. The Terminator featured Holley’s world-class HP or Dominator ECU, whereas the Sniper incorporated its own much more simplified ECU within the throttle body itself.
Where is Holley sniper made?
So Sniper EFI systems are made in the US. Fi Tech is manufactured in China. Their parent company, Fuel Injection Technologies, LTD build and designs EFI systems for OEM Chinese vehicles, and FiTech is a spin off of that.
Can Holley sniper control transmission?
No, the Sniper EFI will not control a transmission.
Does a high rise manifold add horsepower?
High rise intakes on the other hand are better at building horsepower in the upper RPM range and typically have larger and longer intake runners. The power band of a high rise usually starts around 2700 to 3000 rpms and they can be capable of making power all the way through 7000 to even 8000 rpms.
