Scott Long said:I have the ZR Motorsport intake on my 92. It sounds good and it made gave the car better throttle response. Not sure what size throttle body is the largest it will fit as I was thinking of adding a 75mm soon. If you have an 80mm you may have to get the MP intake since thats the only one I know of that will fit the larger throttle bodies and MAF's.
Mike, were you doing the head gaskets and upgrading everything while it was apart or just doing the blower and manifolds? did you take your intake manifold off and open up the ports and the inlet port where the return plenum mounts?
Scott Long said:I was under the impression that you had them off the car for some reason. I am still kicking myself for not doing that while I had mine off to clean and paint them. After I put it back together I then read about all the guys grinding them open a little more and removing the lip. Well if I ever have to drop the exhaust its getting done.
A friend of mine in Michigan bought MAC short tube 3.8L headers and cut and rewelded the collector on the drivers side 180 degrees the opposite way to clear the steering shaft and then had custom down tubes made to mate up to his flowmaster cat back. I think I might go that route since the headers are only like $249 or something cheap. Much cheaper than the kooks headers. He said he would weld them for me.
Scott Long said:Do you have the top polisihed as well as the IC tubing? I'd love to do that to mine but I don't have the time or the experience to do it myself. Maybe when I upgrade my blower if I get an MP2 then I will have them polish it. Although I don't mind it silver. On my 90 SC I painted all the tubes, ic, blower, top, plenums, and tb and maf a high heat silver. When I clean under the hood it shines almost like a chrome. It looks nice. Right now I have oil and crap all over, but if I clean it up it looks nice.
