So my buddy just brought me into the realization that supposedly if you add a cold air intake or short ram intake modification to your engine, at some point in it's life it will start to "tick" a little bit from where the valves are not used to the excess amount of air coming in from the intake. His "theory" he hopes is that by adding a complete exhaust (header-back) it'll push the air out quicker and hopefully make the engine last longer in the long run?
I'm wondering: if the intake statement is true? (You get a tick eventually on a daily driver?) If so, how do you avoid this, or prolong the life of your engine once you add an intake?
