Edlebrock intake
 
In about a month I plan on supercharging my car. I was just wondering if youguys think it's worth it to buy the edlebrock aluminum intake before I supercharge my car. Will I gain many benefits? Thanks guys. Btw, if it matters there will be a bbk 78mm throttle body/ plenum installed before I put the supercharger on.

Thanks,
Brian

also, sorry for any typos. Doing this off my iPhone.

Get the edelbrock intake manifold with the T6061 Intake elbow and a 75mm TB and that will work excellent for your car. Your powerband will be pushed upward but I think it will be worth it for you. Dont forget you need to get the correct fuelrails for it as well.

Good luck w/ the purchases!

Will the bbk 78 mm throttle body/ plenum work on it ok for now?
Also, what type of gains hp and tourque can I expe t from this?
Thanks guys for the info

It will but you will need an adapter plate from MMR. And the gains will be really up top in your powerband. Until you get the blower...then you will see the real gains!

N/A probably a drop unless you have heads and cams and shift at 7000rpm. but FI you might gain a bit. Idk how much though. But the stuff on this page im linking is what you should get.

Don't get the adapter plate, get the custom elbow. The adapter plate is like a restricter plate used in Nascar, it kills most of the potential gain.

^Thats why i linked to your website with the 6061 elbow.
