Thanks,

Thanks. The 90s I just went to my local auto parts store and picked them up In the "help" section. Already tossed the packaging and receipts so no part number. I did not need to drill in the cover but I wanted to just for a different look. I also drilled into the top of the Throttle Body to install that fastener that holds the tube. Not for the faint of heart. Measure the depth about 4 tires and drill . It has a Christmas tree style faster that is pushed into place

Maybe you can tell which one from this link? (HELP products from Dorman):

At WOT the car goes into open loop anyhow with fuel enrichment. The wideband O2 sensor would be the most valuable tool for monitoring any fueling affects the new intake has on the engine.
.

The E38 PCM does not lock down LTFTs when going into PE. If they're too far out, AFR will be affected.

Wanted to let everyone know that I took pictures and video, but were accidentally erased. When I restored my iPhone, since I got a new one. Luckily I do have the Dyno print outs. I'll post results shortly. My fuel trim kept steady through out every pull. We did a total of 2 pulls per intake, 4 pulls total. All with the hood closed. This was done on a MD-500 (Mustang Dyno) yesterday's outside temp at JBA was 75 degrees. Everyone was surprised at the results, especially me! I only expected at most 5hp. See for yourself...........

One thing I noticed is better throttle response, and a better sound. You can feel the difference, now I also hear a whoosh when I turn off the car. Also, I noticed specks of rubber all along the left side of the car, from the rear wheel all the way to the RF fender. After the Dyno.

Nice! 16 peak HP and 10 ft-lb if I'm reading correctly? Avg numbers are up too. Been following this thread for a month waiting for your results!

[staceet]

so if I'm reading that right, you picked up 16 hp and 10 ft lbs with the intake? If so I'm definitely ordering one on Monday morning.
