I remote mounted the pimp under my car port. I was afraid of the rain damaging the motor/pump or get water in the hydraulic reservoir. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a reason for that rather than sending a pipe around the corner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just get an fg style or aftermarket? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustangman570 Member 74 Member For: 11y 3m 22d Posted 20/09/18 03:22 PM Author Share Posted 20/09/18 03:22 PM The cheapest FG intake I found was $500+shipping. So its over $600 by the time its shipped to me here in America. I'll be porting the hell out of this intake and eliminating the flappers. I'll probably end up making a forward facing intake similar to the PlazmaMan or an RB26 with the front facing TB. I mainly did this out of curiosity. I want to see what I can do with the stock intake. 1 hour ago, Puffwagon said: I see the intake manifold has been chopped and welded. Is there a reason for that rather than sending a pipe around the corner? Several reasons. 1. I don't like the 2 hard 90 degree turns these adapters require. Hard 90 degree turns hurt air speed. It probably won't effect rear wheel HP, but every little helps. 2. I don't like the way it looks. 3. Cost, I see the relocation kit sell for $350+shipping. Shipping it to America means it will be almost $500 for a relocation kit that I don't like. Flipping the TB only cost me an hour and a half. 4. Curiosity and boredom. I have been wondering if flipping the TB would work. I had free time so I decided to give it a shot. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
