Here's the short version for those who don't like to read

849rwhp 688tq

This all started when another 'member' gutted an intake and added a throttle body to his car.

I had a conversation with James (limited360) and he agreed it would improve torque down low where this tank needs it most with a procharger.
(if I could have read his mind he was probably thinking,"its your headache and money DO IT!!!!")

After reading old threads and blah blah I went with the dragon throttle body. James also convinced me the Lightning maf and extender wasn't proper (more like mandated). So we went with a pmas maf, which led to screw it, a straight intake tube would be better too. Which led to (aghhhhh!) there is no room in front of this dang motor with this fan in the way. So yep, new fans and shroud were in order. (Friggin headache/money pit!!)

Also eliminated that big pcv bung on the intake and deleted the egr.
Had front qa1's laying around for a year or two so those were added as well.

Following are pics in no particular order. http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/10/22/015ae5e0def226b5247340fb937d0f 82.jpg

Hey Jerry that's some very nice machine work! You must know a guy! You should have converted it to a blow thru setup (better driveability)

I had the option.
Didn't have a good horizontal pipe to place it. I think it's a bit of he said she said.
Either way, everything I read said nothing about driveability, only stated it would have been easier for the tooner (intended and spelled correctly :D)

I can honestly say it's the happiest I've been with the car since I bought it.

No more shredding belts thanks to the thump tensioner.

Better low torque thanks to the throttle body.

And no more spongy gas pedal thanks to a tightened converter. Even if it's a tad slower at the track because of it, it's a better driver. :beer:

Exactly! I'll take a car with great driveabilty any day over a timeslip!
