Sorry to hear about your troubles. I wanted to see some decent numbers out of your car before the PI cams. Nice hood props though.

So was I man, so was I. I'm going to be back on the dyno VERY soon though. I know my car has ALOT more than that, so I'll update the #'s as soon as I get them.

eeek how did they break your throttle cable???


I redid my swap and everything is good now....no ses codes or anything runs strong.....I will have numbers soon...hoping for a nice suprise

I told the guy to take it easy on the throttle, but I guess easy to him was hammering it.

Glad to see everything worked out on your car bro. I can only imagine your frustration.

i know im comming in kinda late, but the PI intake bolds directly on? i thought the PI intake had to be port matched to the NPI heads. where can u buy these kits with the adapter plates and what not to do the complete intake swap? and how much does it run in $$$.

Livernoismotorsports has the entire kit for 650. You can also just purchase the adapter plates for 300 bucks and get the other parts yourselr.

Good Luck..

Don't forget if you get just the adapter plates, you need an aftermarket hood so you can close you hood due to the added height of the intake with plates. If you have a stock hood and want the plates, the kit is the only way to go because of the modified PI intake that allows a stock hood to clear.

I didn't use the plates and just used the NPI gaskets and RTV with my stock hood.

Good one bro, I forgot all about the fit issues. The bolts are also a BIOTCH to find too.

Yep....I say go for the cheap way.....just get the PI intake (used or new) and then just bolt it on......use RTV....just use a lot of it......despite all the problems I had I still say go for it....only reason I had problems was I didn't use enough RTV.....

I probably spent a total of 200$ including everything down to coolant..etc..even included stuff I didn't need...

but as said before you will spend at least $650 on the livernois setup...
