What Intake to Get?

96GTfanatic · 11-23-2001, 12:04 PM

I have a 96 GT with light mods, exhaust, h-pipe, short throw shifter. I am going to get an intake for my car (upper and lower) not air intake. Any suggestions? I've been having trouble finding any for the modular engine. What kind of performance boost should I get from this. I hear about 25 at the wheels

Save some extra $ and get the 99+ heads 1st. The heads are the real performance killer, not the intake. Just my .02.

What intake's are even available? I think the FRPP intake only fits the FRPP heads? The PI intake might work, but that won't give any power. You could swap on a Bullitt intake only after you swap PI heads on.
If you want big power gains, your only choices are headswap, or poweradder.

The only real option for an intake for our modulars are the Bullitt or FRPP's.

That is it. As previously stated ... for real performance added ... do the headswap.
