Default ANyone with NPI to PI intake

Was it worth it? Problems with install? How much was your total cost for everything? How long did it take you? Will my stock plenum and tb work with it and my strut bar? I think thats about it. Sorry for all the questions i did some searches but nothing is detailed specifically bout the intake...its all full pi swap...

It defintly was worth it. Leaky coolant prob but sovled, for the most part, for ease just go with adapter plates($90). 190 for intake mani, 5 for rtv sealent, 80 for misc. supplies from modular depot, ask for randy. Install took 8 hours, but inour defense it was from 8pm-4am, cold as hell out, and got tired/lazy midway through, also trouble removing some crap in a spark plug hole. your stock plenum and TB will work, not positive if it will clear your strut bar, and NP.

I went ultra cheap.

Intake for $125
Gaskets $30
Rtv $5
Homemade Valley pipe $free ( total PITA )

Seems to leak a little, wouldnt except i did a bad job tapping the second coolant sensor. Took me the majority of the whole weekend only because we bent the stock valley pipe until it fit and put PI cams in (which only took a few hours since the intake was already off).

I did cams too, but car sounded and drove very different. 0-60 time only dropped 0.1 due to major tire spin. Didn't spin'm prior if i launched right. I get my new tires on Friday and will get a true indication of power. I'm think your 0-60 will drop about 0.3 with nothing but the intake swap if you can still hook! 4000k + is where it feels much better.
