Nice!!!!, but haven't you taken your car to the tracks with the nos set up as of yet?
I'm pretty sure U can see high 12's with the 125 shot alone. I scare to know how much you'll make after the PI swap

when doing the pi swap the hose under the intake is different right? were can you buy that hose at...autozone didn't know what i was talking about...

I used vacuum hose and clamps for mine. You don't need the special metal from Ford. Just run rubber hose from the back of the water pump back. It's like $1 plus 2 clamps. All in all, you'll save $40. I've had mine like this for 6 months and no leaks.

LOL.... I tell you this cause a friend of mine has a 03 with regular bolt on's including headers and exhaust, with Stage 2 VT cams and he ran high 12's 4 times in a row, and he had nitto street. I don't know how much HP he's making at the wheel but I don't think he has 125 extra, but hey lets just hope for the best for you, so you definetly have an assigment. As soon as you ran all 4 ways, hit me up with the num's U put down

I forgot to mention you that you can always go to a body shop and tell them to make you one out of stainless steel tubing.

Default Lower heater tube.

Yes, a flexible hose of some sort will indeed earn the title as "cheap fix".
Let us consider why there is a metal tube as opposed to a temporary solution with a material that needs no introduction to early failure.
The labor behind this repair in all honesty, warrants that the more costly material is a more highly desirable consideration. I'm not sure why anyone would favor the cost of labor a second time over the part that is originally meant to be there. Please do not promote the former and show some pride in your intelligence.
