Thank you! Im pretty excited about this intake. Its not so much plug and play, need to swap to foxbody throttle body, TPS & have someone fab up a new cold side pipe.Love the intake . I’m still trying to decide what my new intake setup is going to be . These are up there for sure .
Yea I’ve had a few sn’s with fox throttle bodies so it’s notta worry for meThank you! Im pretty excited about this intake. Its not so much plug and play, need to swap to foxbody throttle body, TPS & have someone fab up a new cold side pipe.
Awesome, it looks insane. I say go for it haha!Yea I’ve had a few sn’s with fox throttle bodies so it’s notta worry for me
I can answer turbo 2v questionsEdit had some questions but saw yours is a 5.0. Nice build I am turboing my 4.6 2 valve.
I just put in a set of 4.10 gears is it going to be way to much with the turbo at 8 psi? Also can I use the stock intake manifold or do I need a different one?I can answer turbo 2v questions
Stock intake will work just fine. The 4.10s will more than likely annihilate the tires off the car in the lower rpms basically bleeding off all of your boost as you will end up pedaling the car. You can run them but a longer set like 3.55s will be far more manageable and be ultimately faster. More mph per gear, less shifting, etc. And less of a reliance on ET streetsI just put in a set of 4.10 gears is it going to be way to much with the turbo at 8 psi?

How many psi, how big of a turbo? If you're doing an on3 kit. Go straight to -10AN oil lines/ fittings. Install them BEFORE installing the drivers header. Go straight to a -10an oil drain as well with a carefully placed welded bung on the front of the pan, either dead front or offset to thr passenger side of the front..(gives you more crank pulley clearance) I would also recommend welding on a -4 an bung to the pan as well with a cap in the event that you run an oil pressure regulator. However they just recently have made a return less pressure regulator. Look into that if you have a high volume oil pump. Nothing sucks more than coking a turbo. I would replace the Vee band clamps and maybe the Vee bands.. and definitely check the flatness of the header flanges and Vee bands before installing. For the down pipe/midpipes. Get 3" SS ball and socket connectors and weld them in. And weld a bent rod to the mid pipes and use the catback tip style hangers riv nut to the floor.Dang I was afraid of that, so 3.55's for a turbo car. Got it. Any other tips for going turbo?
As I went up with power and boost I went from the 3.55s to the factory 3.27s.. went full circle..Definitely too much gear for a turbo. I piss right through the gears with 3.55s and kinda wish I went 3.27
