Default Anyone running the Edelbrock Xt-Pro-Flow?

Heard through the grapevine that someone picked up 39 horsepower over a truck intake manifold setup. Thought it would be an easy mod at some point. Anyone here make the swap yet? Got pics? I have an 07 5.3 I am planning on turbocharging soon.

Foose is running it and I think Smokeshow but not sure. They are good intakes for high rpm horsepower for sure.

Thanks for the answer. Just curious if anyone used it, and where they picked up power. Trying to get this 5.3 efficient without getting to deep INSIDE of it.

Any noticeable difference in driveability? Torque? Anything feel better under the curve? Better mileage? Got pics?

I'm sure it works,..dyno isn't really all that important to me if any of the above is on the plus side.

Thanks, J

I've never done any back to back testing with it and the stock intake, so I couldn't lend you any definitive information. When I had it on a 4.8 a while back, it felt like it held power a little better on the high end... Certainly no change in mileage. Basically, I just have it to hide wiring. lol

The Holley is gorgeous,...also interested in that from a performance standpoint.

Nice. Thanks for the pics. Kinda jealous of your setup. I see on the engine stand you have a twin, running off two C6 manifolds? Nice. Are you also running a C6 manifold on the Single kit? Wondering how it would or wouldn't fit with the stock coolant/ac lines etc.

Very cool man. Like I said, jealous.
