Cams today.

I am planning on buying the Frpp intake and throttle body does anyone recommend this setup with my cams?

I have the intake and working on saving for the TB!

Love the FRPP intake!

Did you feel any gains from thr intake.

 

[Greg Hazlett]

You want the truth?

LOL!!!

I felt a ton of gains! That gain being everytime I crack my hood, my pearly whites feel a breeze for the rest of the day!!

Hit me with the truth. lol The only reason why i asked was I am getting the car dyno tuned and I wanted to get the Frpp intake mani before i get the dyno done.

Not worth it; I saw LAllison pick up 5 hp on the dyno and arguably that was from the spark plug change done during cool down. Luke already had the CMDP's on his stock intake which I think led to the minimal gains. He had UDP's, 62mm TB, CAI, LT's, BBR stg1 cams, etc so he had everything but heads to compliment the FRPP intake and did not pick up anything....to me 5 hp vs $4-500 is not worth it.

I will say this though; the dyno runs were not to redline and beyond, think the pulls were made to 6K so maybe-just maybe-there would have been a gain in the very high RPM range but again that is near redline.

It looks better and if you have any intention of going FI it will shine with that but as far as NA I can't recommend it.

You will probably hear people claim the SOTP gain and I know Luke was only 1 example but the dyno results are as real world as you can get.

I am planning on going FI this summer so I know the intake will help their but if its not going to make me any power until then i might as well wait untill i get the procharger. =/

Good plan and that would give you some time to see if anyone sells one used to save some $$$$.

I'm not sure about about the 4.10s yet intill I get a full dyno tune so I can go WOT. However, I can see with my higher gears (3rd and so) the turbo seems to kick in sooner.

My biggest problem right now is I have 28" tall drag radials in the back and 26.7 tall street tire in the front & my car is lowered. So the car looks great, but I'm hitting everything.

Well at least your having fun with it whens the dyno tune coming.
