Trust me dude, when someone on the forums scams someone, we all go on a crusade. Somone scammed someone on Pirate4x4 and it made friggin Dateline, nobody let go until that kid gave up the cash.

Most people are good though, I've never had a problem myself, but even from Summit Racing the PI intake is under 200 bucks, and you can get the cams from any 99-up Ford at the junkyard.

Lower intake is the actual intake manifold. The pleunum, also refered to as a elbow, is the same on all 2 valve motors, along with the throttle body.
so how does a purchasing procedure normaly go, i know i will pay, but i dont if i will get the item.

also yeah, just checked out summit racing, and a pi intake costs 204, for 2001-2003 production intake manifold.

Ive also been trying to find ajunkyard in my area. trying to look it up on yellow books .com hasnt helped (guess i could look in the yellow pages).

Most people go with Paypal for the buyer protection, don't receive your item, file a cliam and they will freeze the offender's bank account for the amount until it is resolved.

I bought my intake from Summit, I lived cllose at the time, so it was easy. I thought it was like 189, but I guess I was close at least.

I made 202 rwhp on a Dynojet with my old 96 GT manual car bone stock with only a K/N air filter.
Your best bet is to get a SCT Xcal2 with a "canned" tune or better yet a custom
dyno tune will gain you alittle more.
I bet you will only get 5-10 rwhp being your only mod on a NPI car.

300 would be really optomistic.
You'd need at the least ported heads, and then its still a maybe.

are those VT cams NPI spec with th 500 lift or PI 550/ and you think a typhon intake (profetional products) would yield some more power?

They are for PI heads . 560/.575 lift, 225/235 .050" duration, 108 LSA

I really dont think that Typhoon is worth anything for that kinda money. Besides if you end up going the VT route ,you will need that cash for gears. 3.73-4.10's minimum .And you HAVE to upgrade your springs.

These cams like high rpm's ,but with the gears you can make good use of them.

Buy the heads used. With a little homework and patience ,you can save about $500 and they will be just as good as new. Do H/C/I at the same time.

If your using PI cams,you dont need new springs. I was talkin about VT 2's.

yea the tune will not give you that much for sure. Maybe a better tune on a supercharged motor or something. Tunes can really help out but its mostly when you do more stuff to the motor.

My advise to you if you want to start making good power...either swap the motor to a 4v or go with a 99 up PI H/C/I swap.

Good luck and keep those questions coming , we are here to help.

No no i meant get new PI head assembly and swap the cam to VT/2 or COMP or any other. And would i need to upgrade valve springs even though the valve train would be new. ???
