Default Anderson powerpipe installed

Thought I would start the New Year off right by installing my Anderson powerpipe. This thing makes a huge difference in the car. Just with a quick run around the block I could tell it has more power.

Nice I picked one up for my setup awhile ago but never installed it yet, supposed to pick up a pound of boost from it. I got mine used and I need a template to cut out the sheetmetal on in inner fender.

Redline water wetter , ford gold antifreeze, worked wonders in my blower's coolant system as far as keeping the blower cool.

I have a lightning setup.

I like that pipe, do not forget a dynotune, a simple upgrade to a fender intake and filter without a tune cost me a wrist pin ;( 9 months later.

Yes it is a 4" tube. I talked to my tuner and he said there is no need for a re-tune since the air will not affect my blow thru set up which is set up right before my TB. He rights his tunes to use the whole MAF scale so if boost is increased it does peg the MAF.

Actually I think this is the year of the build. Might pick me up a little Honda....I know, I know, just to get around and start building the Stang. Having way too much fun with this car.

Hey Soldier I will try to get a vid up soon.
