Hello guys,

Well the new Trick Flow Plenum is in and I am really pleased.

I don't have any dyno numbers to prove it (no money right now)
but i can tell you that this made the most difference in the way my car responds than any other bolt-ons I have used.

Both from a stop and from a roll, I can feel the difference in the way the car pulls, now...keep in mind that I have a non-pi head 96 GT, so any little difference in horsepower can be felt and really appreciated.

I had the Plenum polished from both inside and out, so it looks beautiful under the hood. I will post some pics tomorrow.

I only ran into one small problem. Once I installed the new plenum with my C&L flow pipe, the stock strut tower brace would not clear, by a good amount. The Trick Flow Plenum is about 1 inch taller that that of the stock plenum and the C&L pipe doesn't help either. So I left my stock brace off, but I want to replace it with an aftermarket one.

Does anyone know what will work? I need some info as to where to go for a brace at a good price.

Getting back to the Plenum, in my opinion, it is worth every penny. Besides, how many of us have spent the same amount of money on other bolt-ons (CAI) and gain no horsepower or even loose some horsepower.

Two thumbs up on both quality and performance for the Trick Flow Intake Plenum.

Good to hear you like it. As mentioned above where did you get it, and for how much? Seems like I saw it listed for $189 or something liek that somewhere, but I can't remember where.

Actualy, I paid $139.00 from Summit racing for the bare aluminum version and paid $25 at a local shop to have it polished, looks beautiful.

You can buy the gray painted or black painted versions also from Summit for around $10 more.

I have never dynoed my car, I just keep adding bolt ons.

The only thing I can tell you is that I have ran a 9.4 in the 1/8 mile (Irwindale Speedway)

and ran a best of 14.8 in the 1/4 (Fontana Speedway- weather and track were horrible, 100+ degrees)

I guess when I go back to the track I will see what kind of improvements I get.
