Default pi intake

Is it possible to just do the pi intake swap and not change the heads or anything else. if so howmuch of a gain would it be and where is a good place to get the intake.

yes, its possible....you are going to get so many guys saying yes just swap it on and a lot of guys saying you should go with the adaptor plates..

so its up to you, i've heard if you just get pi gaskets and some rv you shouldn't have any problems.

you're other route (the one i went) is to go to www.livernoismotorsports.com and get the PI Intake adaptor swap...just bolts the pi intake onto non pi heads correctly, the way it should be done

as to gain wise..on a n/a motor probably around 10-15rwhp...blown cars a little more

any other questions just ask

For that price would it be better to just do the typhoon intake because it will bolt directly up and is not plastic what do you think.

I just bought mine here.http://cgi.ebay.com/96-98-Mustang-GT...QQcmdZViewItem Supposedly everything you need. The temp sensor hole is drilled and tapped, A little pricy but you dont have to run around collecting parts. Custom Mustangs south Florida have been selling these for quite awhile.

how much did you give for that set up the link that 97stanger gave gives you everything for direct bolt on for 499 which is why i was wondering if it is better to go with the typhoon since it is the same price and will bolt up directly.

yeah i know the regular PI intake swap from livernois is expensive...but i honestly think doing that is better than ghetto-rigging it...i have heard nothing but negative feedback about the typhoon...
