Were thinking that with the 10% UD 18lbs of boost with the E-85 we shouldn't need an intercooler. But i guess time will tell but for now no intercooler is in the plan.

Better lose that IDLER BRACKET and get a fixed one. It will not hold under a lot of boost.

That will be nice. Back on that IDLER BRACKET it is good for around 5 pound more than that and it will move on you. They just will not hold much more than that.

This is a cool project. If you don't mind me asking, what does that setup cost from the hat to the manifold?

Damn why did you ask me that. Now i'm crying at how much i have into it. It's better not knowing or keeping track. haha But hat to intake and everything in between with 66lbs injectors was $8,900.
