We use a G8 GT MAF Sensor so that necessitated the rise to 4 inch as that point. In a naturally aspirated setup the extra inch would make a difference but in this application no.

As for the blow through setup we've done it both ways before. In particular this setup has dual intakes for the twin turbos so if we put the MAF before the turbos in a draw through scenario we would have had to find a way to get them into one intake or use two different MAF sensors which is messy business.

Good info, thanks. I was wondering if you had tried it both ways and if there was any negative effects, so that answered what I wanted to know.

As for running 2 MAFS I completely agree, it gets messy, it would be much easier if you were converting from 2 to 1 like I normally am when I convert from a factory TT setup to a larger single snail.

Nice looking kit guys

I don't think you guys realize how hard it will be to get these cars to run impressive times. 500rwhp has gone 9's in a 3400lb 4th gen...for example LMR's twisted slayer made almost 600rwhp and ran mid-11's on Drag Radials.

Weight and suspension are key's to running a low number, but with this car you WILL be sacrificing its ability to be a great "all around performer" if you start hacking this car up. The true test will be running great times in the 1/4 and roadcourse. I'm sure we will see many one trick pony's start popping up, running impressive times...if having only a 1/4 mile beast is their goal, I'm sure they will be successful. I will be more impressed with those who take a no compromises approach and create a set up that can do both.

I am aware of this but even still ... with stock cars already running in the 12s with proper drving skills, I cant imagine this car wont run 11s with ease.

Simple math puts HP to weight running this combo far quicker. Take into account stock tires, converter, etc ... and I still think 11s should be easy.

I had a 2001 Cobra with a prototype INCON twin kit on it and at 10 psi it made 600RWHP. At 3800lbs, On a stock tire shifting a Viper spec T-56, the car ran mid 11s at over 130 at OSW (Since the owner is in FL, ask Randy Weisinger (track manager), he knows the car well) I was getting 2.20 60fts due to the lack of traction trying to launch the car with stock suspension & tire. So with an automatic and slightly less HP, launching should be easier & he wont be anhilating the tires on shifts (as I did with the Cobra) Put a set of Nitto 555Rs on it and even with the stock converter, this thing should hit low 11s easily. (IMO)


Regardless of the actual ET the car runs ... that project is awesome and is a testement to Intense's ability to engineer and deliver a wicked street car!!! I have no doubt that it will be a force to be reckoned with.

I hope he runs the number, I'm just trying to be realistic. Hennessey, LMR etc have dyno'd several cars making 550rwhp+ and trapped 121+/-, although that is in summer heat. We'll see this fall, I hope we are all pleasantly surprised.

Intense does a great job for sure...if I had gone the turbo route, they would have been at the top of the list!

We'll see at the track. I wanted to go this Wednesday but it looks like it will rain. If it does not rain, I'll be there.

Intense did a great job with the car, I've been daily driving this car and it is perfect, I just hate that I can't be stepping on it all the time, otherwise, I'll be getting lots of tickets

Could I get a link or have more video sent to me of this twin setup. This is definitely what I am looking for...

I'm going to the track tomorrow. I should be able to post time slips.

I like the look of those dynos. Add some headers and a catback exhaust for even more. With the right tune, we could be seeing some very shattering track numbers.

[dmack2k7]

still gotta wait for the specs of sts setup. i must compare

Good luck man, keep us posted!

[Todd @ INTENSE]

We are waiting as well to see the track numbers

[Jchaluja]

Went to the track amd had a horrible time trying to get the car to hook up on street tires. My 60' was 2.11 with TC ON and 12.3 1/4 mile, tc kicked in but was the best I could do. It was kinda hot and when I ran with tc off, I would spin the tires half the track.

I need to learn/find out how to launch this car, it has lots of power but I can't get it to take off properly. I will try again next week and get more practice with the launch, I should get into the 11's if I ever take off correctly.

Recommendations are welcomed!

Pharmad: How did you launched yours? I was horrible off the line
