Building A Better Hammer (Why Our Intakes Work)

Its one of those things that seemingly seems so simple that I have to wonder why no one else ever thought of it. It's the shape. The shape starts as a large opening and tapers to the same diameter just before the throttle valve. This accomplishes many things at once:

1. This forces the air to accelerate as it travels from the filter to the throttle valve instead of remaining at a steady state speed through the intake path.

2. This shape also keeps the wall-boundary friction farther away from the centerline of the tube.

3. The increased amount of volume inside the intake allows for sharper throttle response.

There are several other design factors that I put into play but, honestly I really dont want my competition to actually wind up being competitive with me.

I am very proud to say that all of our products are Made In The USA from USA origin products. A lot of companies get their parts made overseas and assemble them here. That way they can say that they are "Made in the USA" . What a load of bullcrap! ALL of our products and components are made in the USA. Too many soldiers have died to preserve this country. No way in hell am I going to sell it out for a dollar! Whether it is the steel tubing in the RAMHAMMER from Moline, Illinois to the custom carbon fiber from Compton, California. I am proud to say "100% made in the USA!" Its amazing what can be accomplished when a business owner has the moral courage to do more than talk about America, but actually support America.
