Default Installed my UPD intake yesterday

This setup is SWEET! I got the smoked transparent one. Upon opening the box I was pleased to see how well this product was packed. Custom fit box and everything.

Installation was pretty easy, took me about 10 minutes since this was the first time I did anything to the truck. Just needed a flathead screwdriver.

I need a digital camera, so I can snap some pics. It looks REALLY REALLY sweet!

Its hard to tell SOTP for me, that butt-O-meter is pretty numb to anything less than 500 rwhp <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I get a nice WHOOSH! sound at WOT though. I like it <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

When you install it, be sure to lay a towel over the edge of the fan shroud. That will prevent you from scratching the intake tube when you are fitting it onto the T-body.

Oh man, we both have heavily-modified trucks now. We're gonna have to line 'em up so I can cap ya with my 3.73's. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" /> I'd like to see some pics of it.

i wish i would have thought to put a towel over the fan shroud... i have a few little marks on mine by the shroud right now.
i bet that smoke looks good with the color of your truck.
btw i think mine was packed with newspaper... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />
