If its installed correct and is a good product it will not harm the car, cooler wheater gives your CAI more cooled air = more power.
It would be belt driven up in front of the engine.
A supercharger is an air compressor used for forced induction of an internal combustion engine. The greater mass flow-rate provides more oxygen to support combustion than would be available in a naturally-aspirated engine, which allows more fuel to be provided and more work to be done per cycle, increasing the power output of the engine. A supercharger can be powered mechanically by a belt, gear, shaft, or chain connected to the engine's crankshaft. It can also be powered by an exhaust gas turbine. A turbine-driven supercharger is known as a turbosupercharger or turbocharger. The term superchargingrefers to any pump that forces air into an engine, but, in common usage, it refers to pumps that are driven directly by the engine, as opposed to turbochargers that are driven by the pressure of the exhaust gases.
This simply refers to where the power comes from. The "driver" would be the gear receiving power from an engine, and the driven gear would refer to what receives that motion.
no go to store and get the wright one for your motor
I would say 15k per year would be average for a diesel engine BMW.
If it has one it would be driven off of the accessory belt.
It would have been faster, but the designer didn't want the turbo lag, he wanted the throttle response of a normally aspirated engine.
I was told a 60hp would get you out of bad weather
I would replace the control module in the distributor. These are microprocessors and are affected by heat especially when they get older. They can shut off your engine and after they cool down they will start like nothing has happened. ill bet you five hundred bucks it doesnt has a distributor
would have driven
You would find it in the front of the engine driven by the accessory belt.
Could be low fluids or a electronic component in engine...
