Thumbs up Thank you R. E. M.!

Just got my ported intake plenum from Paul and Tim about 1.5 hrs. ago. It's already installed. It would have been quicker; but, the 8mm bolt at the rear of the driver's side of the truck is a bitch. I didn't have a small enough wobbly extention. I had to use an allen wrench with a cheap socket jammed down on the end of it. Quarter turn, wiggle wiggle, reset, quarter turn, wiggle wiggle, reset........... and on and on and on...... Ouch!

It's a great looking piece. (On the inside of course.) I'll have dyno results soon.

It is to bad you ran out of time.

I made sure I had time when I was in Florida to meet and see the shop.

They are nice guys, and florida is lucky to have them.

Well, live and learn. It's kind of an expensive lesson though.

When I say no gains, I don't mean just the peak numbers. There was nothing under the curve either. A complete wash.


I used the same dyno for both pulls, also.

Thumbs up Odin's Wrath is the Man!!

Great pictures as always. Let me tell you fellers, when I first bought my PowerPipe, I had a hell of a time getting it to fit. I PM'd Odin's Wrath a couple of times and he talked me through the process. Much obliged.
