So I ordered the polished 6.1 intake manifold from Street & Performance. Gotta add some billet fuel rails and a few other touches but it comes with a polished TB too which I'll have Moe's Performance port to 87mm for me.

It'll look great with a polished Procharger blowing into it with custom piping and a 50mm Tial BOV.....but I think it needs something extra....like this!

Gonna call up Nitrous Express tomorrow and see about sending it up to them for the nozzle and hard line install. Throw a 15lb carbon fiber bottle on billet mounts in the bed....that'll look sweet!

Now were talking. That looks amazing. I think you are going to have alot more fun with that nitrous and your transmission will thank you as well. Any form of boost under daily driving conditions is very hard on these transmissions.

is the intake a good upgrade just by itself? or does this all need to be ordered at the same time? im done with appearance mods so from here on out its go fast. not going absurd but id like some help with a very respectable but reliable baseline.

This intake setup will not benefit anyone that isnt going to go all out. You need boost, nitrous, or a big cam and alot of rpm to take full advantage of this manifold.

Hell if I know...guess we'll all find out. lol

I think it'll be a little doggy on the bottom end in NA form....hopefully the blower will even things out? It will in my head anyway....

N/A you are going to lose a little tq, but you will pick it up on the big end. It is going to work perfect with the blower though.
