The Airflow Performance auxiliary air intake manifold does not have a double
butterfly system...That means that, when you open the system to ram air,
excess pressure bleeds off back though the alternate air intake...You loose
ram pressure...How much you say???...Well. that depends on how fast your
going and the pressure differential in the cowl...Normally, about 1/2 inch
of MP at 200 knots...Total MP at sea level, standard day, 220 knots in my
Glasair is 32 inches...
Best... Steve
