Nice work Atomic! Interested to see how the intake eats all that boost. Should kick ***

Just out of curiosity, why did you swap intakes? That intake wasn't really ballooning was it?
Don't put the FPR under the intake, it looks clean but it's a total PITA if you want to remove the fuel system or change the fuel pressure.

The center would flex some but it was never an issue...I really just wanted something that looked cool

Weak! Jk looks mean! I really like the way it turned out in black! Now let's see some new dyno numbers, and some 1/4 times!

I really dont know as far as gains....hopefully a pretty good bit at high rpm with the intake, and the larger cold side should help out some. This 3.5" is a lot tougher to fit...im going to have to move the pcm over or down some so the pipe isnt wedged between the radiator hose and the pcm cover. Also need to trim the fan shroud by the driver side fan so the pipe can sit closer to the front. Combination of a bigger pipe and the throttle body being pushed a few inches forward make this a lot more difficult, but I almost have it!

Pretty substantial size difference

Had Rick make me this, dual bov's always look so much meaner.

Looks good! Where is the upper radiator hose going to end up?
