heard anything about this?

another small plenum long runner intake. If they'd shorten the runners a bit and open up the plenum then it'd be more useful on cars that it's worth a tinkers damn on anyway. Stock to mild bolt on cars will get nothing, cammed and more serious engines will see modest gains. A MUCH bigger plenum would help but the runners are 12" long... jeebus. I'd like to see one check in at 10ish.

when is someone going to come out with an intake that is worth while i mean if there is one out there let me know. wasnt there all that hype for that powerballer intake that you got red? and it wasnt that great in the end?
|
The problem is that the stock PI intake is a perfect match for the 4.6. Improving it is very hard to do and it seems that Trick Flow and HPS got part of the pieces. Trick Flow straightened the runners but HPS enlarged the plenum. In the end, you aren't going to get massive gains, except in the area under the curve and for the money, it isn't worth it. My money though is going to be on the Edelbrock intake, if it ever comes out...

And I don't know what you mean by not that great in the end. I don't know of many tests that didn't come out with exactly what was expected of them.

Edelbrock has one...for carb'd and custom efi. Short runner single plane IIRC. Not terribly useful for most but on a blower or turbo car it'd be neato. |

The Edelbrock has been "coming soon" for almost 2 years now. |
I was in line to get one for a very god price got tired of waiting and came across a bullitt intake that i'm gonna get instead at least it's proven HP
|
will the Bullitt bolt up with few mods?
|
not really.. there's a whole install kit for it. Several irritating details change with the bullit. Nothing major but just a PITA. The Hardball'r and Typhoon both bolt up quick and easy with no changes.
|
here is the intake that the shop that does all my work developed-
www.loganmotorsports.com |
whats the typical gain with the Bullitt intake?
|
The same gain as w/ FRPP shorties: not worth the money or hassle.

With any of these intakes it's all about forced induction. You wanna see some numbers port your heads, cam it, and get some long tubes and you'll see how much it's worth
And although the bullitt intake will give you 5-10 PEAK horsepower. The power gains down low are in the 20-30 range, it gives you a much better powerband. |
Not with the Bullitt intake. The point of the Bullitt is better top-end power w/o sacraficing low-end. The Bullitt's low-end is the same as a stock PI intake but w/ a better top-end.

Peak gain was 7 RWHP and my peak was a few RPM's higher then the PI |
Is yours supercharged?
|
No sir.
Just exhaust, intake, and a JLT |
Strange since most of the dyno charts I've seen show only improvement in the upper rpms while the lower stayed the same. Whatever, you see something new everyday...
|
i read somewhere that bbk is comming out with an intake for the 2v, anyone hear about that?
|
It's on their site, due out this summer I believe.
