Ported Intakes?

Skyman · 07-26-2003, 02:38 PM

Anyone running a ported or aftermarket intake on their 4v 4.6? Im looking at some for my car, but havn't made a decision yet.

are you going to be supercharged/turbo'd, or n/a?

with the torque loss down low with ported intakes/imrc deletes, most benefit will be seen in boosted applications that might have traction problems.

i haven't been around in awhile, what did you get?

The stock 4v intake is pretty good. Its pretty hard to improve on the stock heads,intake on the 4.6 cobra's. At least if you are staying N/A I could see the benifit if you had boost.

Got any under the hood pics? I always wondered how that would look.

Dark- Yeah I'll take some pics here real soon. It looks big underthere, definatly wider than my 5.0, but it fits well enough.

Snakeman- I have a 93LX notch, w/ a 98 cobra motor, for now Its all stock except for the mass air meter and exhaust. I still have 2.73 gears in the back! I think Im gonna wait and just put a small blower, say, NOVI1000 on it, its not that much more expensive than all the bolt-ons and will yeild a lot more power.

96_4.6 thanks man, its pretty quick, Id say its putting out more power than my saleen, but the gears are killing it.
