Yeah I just installed my RPM II, and it is definatly different. Basically as long as you use the little plastic vacuum "T" you'll be ok. The main vac line fitting on the back does make it quite tight by the map sensor ( I just moved the map) And the PVC needs to be stretched a bit to fit. Other then that I think it was all good. BTW I notice significantly more power and torque all the way through the powerband (even on my stock bottom end), but at 2500rpm it became a monster. Let me know how your install goes.

That intake is larger than the stock long block needs to make better power.

Yes that is true but if more (ie. heads, forced induc., stroking) is planed in the future why not, it saves in the long run. And I also was concerned about lower rpm torque but now that its in I really have to say it did not hurt down low torque much if at all. Besides it's killer looks and finish is leaps and bounds ahead of regular RPM and Performer.
