Intake! Is this any good or what? (pic)

mustangsally93 · Mar 7, 2006

Well I bought this about 6 months ago. I have a bbk 75 mm tb also. It has a egr spacer and 75 mm opening.. I want to know if any one has one, and if you guys know if this will work well with a novi-2000 blowing in to it?

I have heard good things about that. They go for big buks on ebay.

Overpriced so no one uses it. NO Good comparisons for anyone to try it out.

Stick with the tried and true...

I payed 550 for mine.. What do you think is a good intake for a what I want, also I know the engine,blower,nos, well make more power then I need. so if I would lose a little( but I don't think so) its no big deal. I like it a lot but.......

What is tried and true?

The Holley Systemax II outflows that intake.

one more think......... I'm not a ricer but I want a good looking intake. Not just some little chrome box that is the size of my hand!! Im going for a good looking and good air flow.

i personally think the holley looks better than that intake, IMO

WOW I just looked at you car, REALLY BAD A$$!! But on the intake, its just to plain for me (also not a chrome fan,or plain fan, or football fan... any ways). What the flow rate on that, and what size opening is on the tb side?

RacEoHolic330 · Mar 7, 2006

Thanks for the kind words.

I polished my intake and shaved the "Holley Systemax" lettering off the top, so I guess if you left it the way it comes it would look less plain. As for flow numbers, I'm not sure, but I know the throttle body opening is just shy of 75mm

I have heard that the BBK intake creates sharp turns for the air which isnt good and MMFF dynoed and i think it was almost identical to the GT-40 intake.

Here is a mile long thread about it hope this helpes.

There`s been some quality control issues,and it doesn`t appear to out perform the tried and true intakes on the market.

One guy on stangnet,(I think his user name was humpty dumpty),said the lower manifold leaked coolant through the casting and the fuel injector mounting holes were off.
Another guy on the corral mentioned something about the lower cracking I think when he torqued it down and some other problems with it as well.

It sounds overly hyped and unproven so far.

mustangsquared · Mar 8, 2006

I thought MMFF dyno'd it at just under the TFS street intake...I might be wrong. I do remember them commenting on the sharp angles the air needed to take and I still dont understand how the cyclinders on the right side dont starve since it is easier for the air to go straight across to the left side rather then turn 90 degrees. I went with the TFS street (black) since I dont use a power adder and it matches my heads and cam. I guess the most inportant is everything you have needs to "match/support" each other. IMO

I have not had my hands on one yet but some of the other guys I talk to in the industry were not impressed with the results that had when flowing and dynoing them.

The Holley I feel is the best LONG RUNNER blower intake available.

Scott, that looks great

WOW Rick you are steping on all my threads!!! lol So how much are the holley intake? Also I guess it look more stock then the bbk ssi... SO maybe I'll get that one too now...

mustangsally93 · Mar 8, 2006

I just looked at their the same price and no fuel rails..

its a saying, what has been tried and proven to work.

The BBK intake really isnt so bad as far as price being that it comes with fuel rails @ 550 dollars. But then you think for 50 bucks more you can get something better, so my performer RPM 2 is actually coming in the mail today.

BTW if you have stock heads and stuff, 75mm TB is WAY too big for you, stick with a 70 at most.

If you like the way it looks and you have it- use it. It's easy to change. I've not seen anyone use it in a blower app yet.
