just drill and tap into the plenum :) problem solved or i think the plate that goes between your tb and intake mani is like 60 bucks or under that

I'm looking to go the Eddy route as well...shortest runners and you can pop a elbow on there with a 90MM inlet for a real throttle body..make some use of those huge MAF's out there.. 30lber's and get your tune set for kill..

Not to derail your thread...But I'd like to see these manufacturers make some Big tube headers..Biggest I found was 1 5/8 primaries stepped to 1-3/4...
I don't know, as I type this I kinda realize the ports on these heads aren't mush bigger than 1-5/8.. :rolleyes:

i'll post this picture yet again... lol

i should probably do a write up on this but since i'm not home and able to drop my tank for better pictures it's not that good.. but basically drop your tank and your fuel pump sits in the basket.. there are a couple screws but when you order the focus svt pump you'll get whats pictures below and it's pretty much exactly the same as our basket and i think i even used parts off the basket because mine was nasty lol

So you take the actual pump out of the focus basket and put it in the basket you already have?

Ok folks, here's what I ended up doing. I went back with the stocker for the intake, and I'm gonna do what blown98gt said and get the adapter plate for in between the upper and lower intakes. I'll tap the nitrous into that.

The reason I went with the stock on again is that it's really the only affordable one I could actually find (i looked for the bullitt used but couldn't get one, and I didn't want to get the track heat cause I couldn't use my already aftermarket upper intake and throttlebody, and it's expensive.) I thought about the edelbrock intake, but the thing that worried me is the loss of torque. Our little v8's need all the help they can get down low, and the powerband for that intake is so high, i honestly believe it would hurt more than help me.

So, in short, I'm gonna go with the 75 shot on the new stock PI intake, and if it backfires and blows my shit into a million pieces, you all can laugh and I'll buy an aluminum intake and feel dumb haha :)

Make sure you are still running atleast a wot switch that way your fuel is spraying while your nitrous is, also it's a really good idea to pull your fuel from a different source than your fuel rail but to each his own
