The old intake is just a stock L92 intake, nothing special.

Im going to try the crossover under the intake, but I thought about redoing it with a Y to the back of both rails and the regulator in the middle under the intake. Havent decided yet. Ill be using the holley rails though so my other ones will be for sale soon....hit a hiccup in that I need 1/2" injector spacers (not the 1" I currently have) to be able to line up the holley fuel rail with the bolt holes on the intake. So that is going to delay the running date a few days...

When I found that out I started work on my traction bars and managed to finish those tonight...

They are the assassin bars, and I had brick modify the rear for me to fit my 14b and larger ubolts. Everything lined up pretty well. Also had to get some bigass ubolt top plates to carry over the theme

You have to cut the second leaf to install these bars, but you only have to go to that clamp, and dont have to worry about moving it:

I still have to redo my charge pipe from the intercooler to TB with the new 3.5" I have. I have all the parts, just need to cut more plastic off the front
I didnt realize how far forward the intake comes, so its going to be pretty close between the pipe and the efans.
