Is it necessary to use the intake port? And if you can opt not to use it, I assume just cap it off?

You can't cap the intake port, but you could simply not hook up a hose to it. That would defeat the benefit of having a dual tube unit, because it would have to suck in warm air from elsewhere.

You can't just cap it off or it will not be able to cool the condenser and the system will not work. Just don't connect the house to the intake port. It will pull air from the room and it will still work but you will lose some efficiency that you're paying for with the dual hose design.

The intake port brings outside air into the unit to cool it. Blocking it off means you will be using cooled air from the room to cool the unit. Also, you will create a negative pressure situation inside the room that will suck warm air into the room from any cracks around windows, doors, outlets, etc. to replace the cooled room air that gets warmed inside the unit and exhausted outside through the exhaust port. I suppose it could be done, but the unit would not be as efficient as it is with the intake and exhaust hoses connected to the outside.

no you have to chance your heads to duel port heads. than use duel port intake manifolds.

It has a rear intake port & a bottom port as well. If you don't block the rear it's fine.

It is recommended that you re-jet. I would not recommend this exhaust because it is too loud. It will boost your power and bust your eyedrums. Tech assistance is non-existent. Pay a little more for something better.

Is this an initial set up?First thing to check is that you have the intake and discharge lines on the correct sides. Second is something clogging the intake.

No. If there is a problem with your car the intake has to be shown as the problem before it can void the warranty. I've always used them without a problem.

I have mine installed as an intake and another as an exhaust.. Haven't had any issues with cross-flow or excessive heat, but I'm also running an AMD A8 with a killer fan. I got the rubber mounting pieces and it doesn't vibrate or make a sound in the case. All in all, this is a great HTPC case! Good luck.

If you have an R/O systems, you will need an air gap. Otherwise, I do not think it is necessary.

Nope. Everything worked fine . Just make sure you install it right and that you chose the right intake for your specific vehicle

The Fan Exhaust port is to the side so I'm not sure it you can use it or not.

I would not restrict the intake, not good for your impeller or motor. You might be able to route the discharge through it. I put a small power head on mine.Very happy with the results

None.. Plug it in and enjoy.. NO problems and great air output. Can't go wrong here.

What I did was open the case and take the guts out. I ported them to a case with a 120mm fan. I had to solder a bit and it was a pain in the butt. The PSU is decent here but it sounds like a jet engine. Mine had TWO 80mm fans. Insane. Now I have one decent, quiet PSU. Another option is to simply unplug one of the fans - unscrew the back and unplug the intake fan (facing the Mobo). You probably want to leave the exhaust fan intact.

you should use the fan for intake. if there is enough space for air to enter

Did you disconnect the battery as instructed to help the ecu reset after installation? I had a slight drop as well and you may need to install a less restrictive exhaust as well. I went with a Magnaflow system. It helped with the sound and the mileage.

There is nothing in the documentation that says. I don't know why it would need to be. All it does is filter the coolant.

There is only one air intake - the other end is the exhaust, (you would need a Y adapter if you wanted multiple intakes).
