I don't know if it's any good or not but I'm not a fan of putting anythingmade in Chinaon my Made in America Mustang. Get an Edelbrock or Ford Racing intake. You usually get what you pay for....

No complaints with mine either and noticeable gains over the stock intake. Only bitch was getting those fuel rails mounted.

Actullay, a GT40 intake has the most powerfull midrange punch for the buck compared to Edelbrock, Professional Products and Trickflow's.

yeah , it is done at at very high rpm,s, so if you want something past 5500 rpms,


then get the cam, heads and intake to match that.

In the city, I take my guys down in the mid range to 5500 , then I shut down.

Now, you dont want that power to cut out in the 1/4 at 5500 rpm and effect your ET, so a GT-40 would not be good for you in this situation.

obviously, but what i was saying is that the cobra/gt-40 intakes only have powerbands up to 5500...while the other three i listed all have powerbands up to 6500

the GT-40 only is good up to 5200-5500 rpm ., Id port mine, but stock yeah they are.


The 1/4 mile, you need to pull to 6k+ most of the time and that where the others work better

I have a PP manifold on my 351 and i love it. Big power gain all the way to the rev limiter. I would buy another one in a heartbeat.
