took a while...but finally got it done proper with 304SS pipes and TIG welding.

pipes tacked...merged collector with double slip joint


fits ok...don't mind the rats nest of wiring behind it. a lot of stuff was disconnected.


all of it together...


no dyno numbers..so don't even ask. i'm happy it runs and it runs well but i'm sure it can use some tuning.

also the FiveO injectors were perfectly fine. i suspect i had a bad/lazy injector in the previous set up making it next to impossible to tune to get consistent AF numbers.

thanks to the OGs... ChrisGregg, CMax, Maxpwer for your support, encouragement, parts, and most importantly...comrade.

Excellent!! I'm really feelin' your shiny polished Intake Manifold!!

This is freakin awesome man. Job very well done, and I like the polished intake manifold too. That intake alone must have took quite a bit of time cleaning and polishing.

In for numbers. Nice!

Looks great! DanNY. I can vouch for the time polishing the intake manifold. It's sanding out the pitting in the cast aluminum thats the pita lol. I've spent alot of time on mine and it's still not quite where i want it to be. Im debating on having it coated. Did you paint those upper rad supports or buy them polished? Overall looks like a pretty sweet setup. Nice job!

Looks great Dan! I'm thrilled to hear those 550s are working for you and your engine is running well. Did you have to play with Nistune and the K number a bit to get it running smooth with the new injectors or did you just change the injector size?

Nice job Dan. Also curious about what you did in Nistune

my nistune tune is ALL jacked up.

so when i sent in my board it was a modified JWT board with 370cc. nistune folks took that map and mapped it to stock injectors. so my K values were REALLY off since it shows as whatever the stock max injector flow...BUT it's really running for 370CC.

when i did the swap i left the tune to see...ok it'll just run rich. the car started right away and it ran in the 10s to 11s in terms of A/F.

there's a injector resize tool in nistune. punch in the new injector CCs and you have the option to select to change the maps too. punched it in and it was pretty good...ran in the 15s to 16s. dialed it up a little so i idle more or less around high 13s to low 14s.

once i have that dialed in driveability was pretty responsive (considering i had krap injectors before). i didn't punch it yet but idle and mid throttle is pretty smooth and strong. even when the BOV dumps it still handles that well where it doesn't backfire...but again i didn't punch it. i know i definitely need some dyno/tune time to get it dialed it right but off the bat it's pretty responsive and i'm happy with the FiveO injectors but they are new so i hope they will continue to be good and i REALLY hope tuning is good too.

rad supports...you mean the brackets for the radiator?
they are chrome plated..not paint.

Which injectors are you running? The Jegs 550s?

Sorry i stand corrected lol. Yes i meant the brackets. Very nice touch that looks clean. Mine are a little rusty and i always wondered about cleaning them up or painting them. Was it very costly having them plated?

Looks good. I had no idea you were changing up some things. I am secretly working on mine still.
