Franken-Plenum testing/ Flame on

With the stock one on when I went into boost, it would go to 7psi vacuum. This is at the upper, where the pvc valve goes in.

With F-P it would go to 2psi vacuum.


If I am thinking right, that is a better flow? Does that mean that the upper is flowing almost as much as the blower wants?

lower vacuum readings under WOT would definately mean a decreas in restiction. i didn't think it looked half bad when you made it. i would have smoothed the welds more, but hey function over form any day.

you just had to paint it green and put frankie on there didn't you! LOL now you need a franken-eaton to go with it.

you would really need to do that test on the same motor.

or at least have someone test theirs stock, and then with whichever plenum it is that they have.

I like it man. I have a plenum I fabbed up here at work, if you are ever in the OKC area again, give me a hollar and we can swap out my intake onto your truck and see what it does.

That's this intake right? I thought you said the fur raised the IAT2's by about 20 degrees. Have you shaved it yet?
