UPDATE: INTAKE V 2.0 is done!

I'm still running the stock maf as funds haven't let me upgrade yet...but I switched over to a better elbow! and relocated the vacuum inlet.

The new design should be good for about 20-MAYBE 30% better flow.

the old design had a very sharp 90 degree elbow....this one is more spread out and is longer overall, which SHOULD help flow out a LOT!
Also there are no more protrusions inside of the piping...it's all smooth...so no obstructions either!

Next paycheck i'll be getting my 90mm maf finished up btw.....that'll be around the 15th :)
so by the 20th I'll have my new tunes and the new maf housing all done!
Also, i've been inspired by LeMans GT cars to do the 3000k Heads and Fogs...should be able to see very well at night! lol
I know it's not for everyone....but I like it :)

ALSO: 4.10's should be in the somewhat near future. I'll let everyone know what the new times are also.
My previous best in the 1/8th is a 9.79@ 74.xxx (that was bone stock too) we'll see how much better she does.
I'm hoping I pick up around half a second or so :)

Just took a test...I think I did pretty well. :)

Also, any 4.0 guys here that want an intake...I'll be making the intakes AT COST for a LIMITED TIME.....Once my tools have run their course I'll ahve to start charging a little bit for them. BUT GOOD NEWS, they will still be at LEAST 60 dollars cheaper than most of the Intakes on the market with comparable flow numbers to the JLT system :)
PM ME if you're interested.
Right now I'm currently working on a version for the xcharger guys over on the collective, so I'll be backed up until I finish that project up....but i'll put you on a list in order of who PM's me :)

i love your drive! keep up the good work.

Thanks bud! :)
I'm actually taking a break from studying/writing a paper right now.....I have to write a paper on the communist manifesto for one of my lit classes. :p

I'm finished my MAF project.....it's not going to work the way I want it to....I couldn't get consistent enough numbers when I was data-logging today.

But I may be ordering an 88mm Maf tonight :)

After the MAF, I plan on saving up for 4.10's and a locking diff.

You have to get the file on your comp to run datalogging....you can't just do it on your comp.

Your computer AND tuner must be hooked up when you're data logging

Good news and Bad News:

Good news!
Ordered the MAF a few nights ago...should be in soon!

Bad News:
Doc says if I don't get rid of most if not all stressors in my life soon, I will be extremely high risk for heart/major organ failure due to stress. So basically he said: "You better get your shit together or you're gonna die son"
LOL right?
My bp dropped to 80/60 the other day.....then the next day spiked to 188/110
Mild Hallucinations, dizziness, lethargy, all symptoms pointing toward a stress related problem.
INSOMNIA to the point of panic sometimes now too.

I'm really glad i'm on spring break so I can take a breather.....but I'm hoping I can work on some things this week.

Once the MAF comes in I'll install it, Then I have a friends seet of LCA's I need to install for him.....then roush suspension to install for another friend......hha fun week ahead :)
