I have been trying to get some opinions from some tuner shops and i am getting people telling me that i cant run the intake untuned. And not only that but i am being told that it hurts the performance of a car that doesnt have head work. So would I not benefit from it?

There was a thread on this recently, and the guy made good power with it from like 4k on. Just a basic 99-04 Procharged gt. Pretty much like yours minus the cams.

It kind of has me interested now.

1. You can definitely run the manifold without a tune - of course your best gains will be with a tune but you will need a tune.

2. As long as you are running a high style plenum like the 6061, edelbrock, etc you should pick up a good gain. You also shouldnt lose much/if any down low

3. Dont forget you will need edelbrock/mmr rails

I don't see why you couldn't...you'll do fine w/ a blower im sure!

So you thinking if i get the adapter plate and run a stack racing plenum it wont do much? And in your 1st statement you think i need a tune? Or i do not?

I just traded a guy my nitrous for a brand new vic jr intake so i am planning on running it i just did want to spend all the money on a tune again when i just got a tune the 2nd week of august yakno?

I picked up around 20 w/ my 6061 on my car...so i mean it was worth it.

Thats pretty good pick up cp, What all is needed to make the intake and 6061 plenum work? Besides fuel rails what else will i need? can i reuse factory fuel lines?

Yea pretty sure same fuel lines...but you just have to delete the EGR...thats really it.
