Alright guys,
I have a 65mm throttle body and underdrives that I am going to put on my 91 LX that I had from my last 5.0. After that my bolt on's will be completely done. It will have 3.73 gears, a short shifter, headers, catless h-pipe, mac cat back, MAF sensor, pulleys, throttle body, subframes, shock tower brace, K&N panel filter...basically all the little stuff. Well I found a new Cobra intake at the Jeg's retail store for $349. Will it be worth it to throw it on with the throttle body and pulleys. I mean will it, in conjunction with the other mods, a nice kick in the pants? My ultimate goal is to get a novi 1000 later in the summer and have a dead realiable street cruiser. I have seen dyno graphs where the stock intake and cobra are identical on the low end with the cobra about 15 horse afrom about 3500 on. I figure even with a slight loss in low speed torque the gears will compensate. I am getting the intake tonite but I can always take it back if I get negative feedback here. Thanks guys!
