:pop2: How soon are "we" gonna do this guys?

The intake arrives on Thursday if no delays, I can install it but the track is hosting the NHRA Regionals Friday-Sunday. October 10th is the soonest I can test it at the track I normally go to.

Yeah, might as well put it on right away and see if there are going to be any hang ups. If for whatever reason the bottom of the intake doesn't clear the valve covers, I can make you what ever size spacer you would need so it will clear.

I think it will be fine though, as I've had the LLT intake on my car and didn't have to change more than what I sent you in the box.

It should all work, if not, there is always duct tape. First thing after I install it will be a boost leak test, make sure all the gaskets line up and nothing blows out.

One question though, the EVAP solenoid, where does the line hook up on the LFX manifold? On the LLT it is beside the throttle body. I need room to be able to install a check valve.

It's on the passengers side, about in the middle of the intake. The solenoid actually pokes right into the manifold, there isn't a separate line that runs to up by the TB like the LLT intake.

Hopefully that's not a problem for your FI setup?

Could be, but I don't think the EVAP solenoid opens when the car is at WOT. I would need to see how the LFX IPF setup looks like, what they use.

I sent Andy and Arno at IPF an e-mail asking them if they could send me the instructions on the IPF Install for a LFX engine. That should have what they used to put the Solenoid into the manifold with a check valve. Just have to see if they will respond.

I have those instructions. PM me your email and I can send when I come home

Damn File is huge, even compressed into winzip, it is still too large...

Thanks to Sycraft (or skycraft), he said there are no directions for the LFX evap, so it may have a check valve already in the intake. It sounds like with a BAP that they had plans to boost a LFX already, so they already checked the EVAP solenoid.

I have the LFX intake manifold installed now, but that is in another thread. Today during a 1-2 shift at WOT I finally was able to feel how the true power band is, there is something causing the clutches to slip or torque management to kick in right after a shift. The car shifted fast but then you could hear the engine spin up but the car was not moving much till about 1 second later. I will ask Arno if he can get it to lock up the clutches immediately, screw transmission life.
