One of the Mustang mags did a test and it laid down some pretty good numbers, but I don't remember much else about it. Might be able to find it online.

Good #'s up top....loses a little grunt down low compared to most aftermarket/non-stock intakes. A lot of fitment issues have been discussed on Mustang internet chatrooms....

Guilty as charged. I wasn't going to say anything until all the work was done but yes that is one of the aftermarket parts I'm purchasing. Hey demon...what kind of fitment issues have you heard about?

#1 that comes to mind is the fuel rail leaking.....

Running stock heads? Ported? GT-40's? Staying below 6000 RPM?

If yes I'd go with something different that makes more average power down lower where it will be put to good use.

Do a search over at Corral.net for the answer to all your questoins. There are a bunch of threads in the 5.0/5.8 engine tech forums about that intake.
