Just FYI, the '99-up mustangs came with all plastic intakes as well and were subjected to the same cracking problems. Only the latest models and warrany cars got the intake with the aluminum crossover tube. Got a brand new all plastic intake sitting in my shed off of an '02. I'll probably be putting it up for sale if anyone wants it.zoma said:For one, not as much power as the 99+ models. Secondly, plastic intakes that crack (you can hear about a few horror stories even just searching canada east).
So if he does, tell him to get the heads off a 99+ for it, and an aftermarket intake, before he's even ready to buy the car. Or he can dodge the hassle and buy 99+

If it’s a positive displacement blower like a Kenne Bell, Saleen, Roush, Allen, FRPP, etc then yes, it will replace the existing lower manifold. If it’s a Centrifugal blower like a Paxton, Vortech, ATI, etc, then it will not require the use of a new lower manifold. I for one think that should he choose to go the Centrifugal route, he should convert to a PI manifold regardless. The ’96-’98 stock manifold is extremely restrictive and huge additional gains can be realized by swapping it out….especially on a blown engine.Boss 351 said:Wouldn't the supercharger come with a new intake anyway?
Boss 351 said:Update: He tried a 98 GT, black leather with electric seats, bright red exterior, 3:55 gears, Pionneer Mp3500 radio, Mach460 speakers, 5 speed, Cobra R wheels, and very clean (Florida car).
He seriously wants the 98 model year. He never had a RWD car before and was suprised to find out how much better RWD is for fun. Wouldn't the supercharger come with a new intake anyway?He's already telling me about the mods he wants done lol Supercharger, sidepipes, Cobra bumpers, tinted windows, eibach springs, etc... lol
Boss 351 said:Oh man... I had to slap some sense into him yesterday. He's starting to talk about taking on our friend which is in the low 11's. hmmmm I don't think a nearly stock Mustang is in the 11's lol Even a blower on a stock engine won't bring it that low.
