Cool JLP Power Flow Upper Plenum

I got my new JLP Power Flow Plenum a couple of days ago and finally got around to start installing this awesome piece.

The JLP PF is a work of art. I love the race inspired look of a sheetmetal intake and along with the polishing to give it the ultimate bling.
Some of you might notice that I also added a Metco Idler setup a few days ago which works great.

Here is a pic of the KB and the stock upper that has been polished. All the polishing work still looks pretty good considering its been exactly a year and 7200 miles since it has been polished.



Here is another pic showing the rear of the stock upper with the "restrictor plate" to adapt the larger KB opening to the smaller factory opening.



Here is my favorite pic......showing the difference in the JLP intake along side of the stock upper. As you can see there is a HUGE opening on the JLP to take full advantage of the KB inlet. Bye Bye "restrictor plate" !!

And here are a couple of pics of the JLP along with the blower which is getting some more polishing work done.
I couldnt wait to see how it would look together so I just loosly assembled the pieces to get an idea. I should hopefully have the polishing work finished on the blower in a few days and get it all fully assembled. But I knew ya'll would want to see a sneak preview.








So far since Thanksgiving I have added:
Dynatech Longtube Headers and High Flow Cats with Mid-pipes
Custom Intake tube with billet 95mm MAF and 6" inlet filter
Metco Idler assembly
JLP Power Flow Plenum

I still need a couple of more pieces to finish this round of modifications before I get the tune straightend out.
Be looking for new dyno numbers around late Feburary.

Its a tight fit, but it looks like its going to be perfect and not hit at all
Johnny told me that they had redesigned it since the first batch

WOW, that looks great! You would think we'd need 120mm Throttle Body's and a 4" Intake tube system to take advantage of all that intake flow.

Hey KB ZILLA, nice gen one in sig. My own 93 Gen one is closing in on 175k and has served me well since buying it new. No mods on it though as it is my daily driver.
I love the recently blinged out engine bay, and it will be cool to see how much HP the increased flow gives you.
