That would be the WMS intake.

It's really nice, but pretty pricey, you're lookin at $310 for just the intake and another $110 for the ram air box.



I would go with the Techco 100mm

Pretty sure it's the best flowing CAI on the market right now.

Steeda w/ carbon fiber elbow. Looks killer and is 90mm.

I REALLY like this thing and have gotten a lot of complements on it.

Right now I'm sitting in the 380's on a Mustang dyno, it will be going on a dynojet across town once I get this worked out to compare numbers! Judging by others, if I can hit 390 on the Mustang Dyno with this intake I'll be around 425+ on a dynojet. Thanks for the suggestions thought keep them coming guys!
What happened to the turbo setup you were talking about was coming along very soon, not this time?

This is not so common...ramp air sounds pretty sweet.

It's going to have to go on the back burner for a while man. I still want to, but what I want and what I need are two completely different things. Damn priorities give me a year or two and we'll be back in business, car still has a lot to do to it before I'd be comfortable slapping a TT set up on it. Thanks for the input guys!

Tease! When I do, this will be the kit...

http://www.exileturbo.com/products/i...p?idProduct=51

I had been swayed to the s/c side, them Tombstang told me about this and it was over. Just need to get my $$$ together. I'd rather build up my suspension and what not before so that the TT is like the icing on the cake. At that point I want the car to be done, and I have a long time before I'll be there so until then I'll be driving her how she is

I'll let you know what I decide, sent a few options to my tuner for him to research, I will say this though. If I hadn't already bought one that Techco would be my first choice. That being said, I do feel you can have to much air on a mostly stock motor BUT this could be compensated for through a smaller filter. If it weren't for the price I would of already ordered one.

I ran a Granatelli for two years, no oil on the filter and no issues. Just use the stock MAF with your tune. Huge flow numbers from what I recall.

I've never heard of using anything but the stock MAF? And the no oil filters are the way to go, I bought one for my BBK and replace it every few thousand miles.

With the Granatelli you can run it without a tune but you have to use their MAF. If you want to get a tune you use the factory MAF.
