Default MP122HH Inlet forward blown3qtr

Well, I installed my 408 about a yr ago with intentions of installing an MP122HH or a TVS 2300. Ive been holding out for the TVS 2300, but once I saw Supersub's inlet forward 122 thread I gave Joe (leftcoast32) a call. So now the wait is over and here I am ready to start the install.

For those of you who don't already know Joe is a really cool guy to deal with. Straight forward and willing to answer any questions. If you call him he answers the phone. If not he's calling back within minutes. A real stand up guy!

So here's pic #1



one advantage of the forward inlet is that you can look inside the front and see the rotors.


and here's the UMI 90mm throttlebody.


First thing to do is say goodbye to the old procharger.

Is that Rat's nest of wires just from the old Procharger? If anything it'll clean that up. Good luck! From everything I've come across on here, Joe is willing to answer any questions to give one a better understanding on these I/F designs. For that matter, I'd say he'd do the same on the other Maggies too!

I knew someone would call me out on that rat's nest lol. It's actually a combination of stereo amp wiring endless vacuum/boost tubes etc. Hell some of that is stock wiring. It was once all real nice. I had to move a few things around and took the cover off when I installed the procharger.

This will be a happy ending indeed. I've wanted to say bye bye procharger since the first time a rode in a maggie powered truck.
