Aftermarket Intake

[fdlt305]

I'm currently in the hunt for an aftermarket intake for my Gt. There are a few different intakes out there now, Trick Flow, Reichard Racing, Foxlake etc. I'm wondering which would be the better intake to go with on a supercharged application. I currently have a P1SC on my car now but i'm wanting to go to a D-1. Does anyone have any information, "good or bad" about these intakes? Thanks

For the money, I'd take a look at the HPS HardballR intake. No modding, direct swap, and it's port-able.

If money isn't a concern then go with a P-51 or Bullitt. Just really depends on what your goals are and what you want to spend.

Are you looking for off-idle power and torque or power more in the higher rpm range? Some of the aftermarket intakes are really targeted towards high rpm motors. I'm sure you can find a Bullitt intake cheaper than a new Trick Flor or Reichard and with some porting I bet it will work nicely.

Anyone use a Professional Product kit????

They have the intake, T-bdoy and plenum available. I would like to add just a few ponies to the 4.6L 2V that I put in my notch. That seems to be the cheapest intake, and it looks good too.

I've heard soooo many horible things about the PP intake it's enough for me not to even give it a second look. Poor fitament, warped deck surfaces, less than stellar numbers. I'd spend the little extra on something else thats been proven.

Dont forget you have to buy the intake, plus alternator, throttle cables, etc just to make it work.

Trick flow looks good, but not many have it so far.

HPS Hardballer intake all the way.

Thanks for adding those that I left out

HPS Hardballer intake all the way.

For what reason?

For what reason?

You don't lose low end torque, direct bolt on with no modifications, you can port it, and it’s made more for street/strip unlike the others that are just strip where you have to crank the RPMs.

P-51 is the best street intake you can get. They have dyno sheets ON THE website of a stock Mustang GT.

I had the P.P. Typhoon and loved it. I had it ported and removed all the flash on the upper and lower portions.

The P-51 is the intake I would get. From all the research and crap I have seen over the years its the only one that has made decent HP.

 

[Stark77]

yes - and the ONLY one that is proven to make it all the way across the board - I believe the dyno sheets show a 17rwhp increase all the way across the board on a STOCK N/A Mustang GT.

 

[fdlt305]

Thanks guys for all the imput. I think i'm going with a P-51. I've heard a lot of good things about them.

The Bullitt intake would require an oval Cobra-style throttle body, another added expense. Fox Lake will hook up to a stock GT elbow & throttle body, or the aftermarket equivalent you probably have.
