I installed a new MP inlet plenum on my 94 auto sc a couple weeks ago. Aside from those pesky EGR bolts, the installation was fairly simple.
While I had the supercharger off, I went ahead and drained the old sc fluid, cleaned the case up pretty good, and filled it up with almost 2 tubes of new fluid that I got from Supercoupe performance.
I properly hooked up all the vaccum lines, put new gaskets on the MP EGR adapter, the EGR itself, and the throttle body, resealed all the supercharger parts (rear at plenum, top, and the 3 intercooler tubes) with black Fel-Pro gasket maker.
Before I put on the MP plenum, with traction control off, I could spin the tires quite freely at takeoff, with the stock inlet plenum.
Now that I've got my 1st Magnum Powers part on my car, I was really excited to see, and feel, how great my car really was.
I've been driving it to work everyday now for 2 weeks, and it won't spin the tires at all from a dead stop. Not even a chirp! It takes a small moment to get wound up, to about 15 M.P.H. Almost sounds like it's bogging down, and then it LAUNCHES like a bat outta hell!!! Feels like my head is gonna fly back to the rear window deck & spin hops the wheels almost sideways when it shifts into 2nd gear. Baaaarrrrk bark bark bark bark! Very nice. It's just that there's NO performance off the line. It kinda sucks.
Any thoughts?
Otherwise, the car is running fine.
