But just like old school days, to get more or different torque values you lengthen the intake runners. I originally had ipf tune and it seemed good but I got overkill and I don’t need the throttle controller at all now.
Go to overkill site to see what 80mm tb cold intake adapter you’ll need.

I have Spectre cai, not on that list, all I’d need to do is measure the OD of my tube and how would I find the exact angle of the bend? The Spectre came with a flexible 90 that is bent to slightly formed to shape as u can see in the pictures I posted

dtek are you the nerdy guy I saw today on youtube showing how to install a trifecta tune ? If you are, like you've said you didn't get your car "dynoed" so your title can be misleading . Not hating bro by any means, I'm just saying you've been mislead if you think your car is making over 300RWHP with the mods you've listed that you've done so far. I have more mods than you and only put down 290rwhp. But have no fear we can help you with a way to get actually over 300rwhp . I'm going the E85 route to push me over 300, but with a few more mods I might just hit the 315-320 range. I know you said you dont have E85 near you so you're going to need to get it actually run on a dyno and bolt on everything you can get. Personally the Jacfab stuff is the only reason i got so close to 300 without E85.

Oh thank god lol, I was like i think i know why he thinks his intake, muffler delete and catch can made 40+RWHP . I wouldn't say stupid, ignorant means you dont know better, stupid is knowing better but not learning from your mistakes. There are a few things bout this car i'm still ignorant about, but thats where we are here to learn from each other and have fun. All my mods are current in my sig, but E85 tune is next. I've been debating getting the 80mm TB from overkill and having jacfac report my manifold to match. Getting ARH or Solo HF catted down pipes (I live in CA and smog sucks) and thinking of deleting my secondary cats maybe. All that could get me close to the 315-320 range I believe. Or i just get the E85 tune and make 302-305RWHP and call it a day.

"catch can" shouldn't be listed as a performance mod EVER! they can help any car i guess but really work best on direct injection.they only catch oil vapor,condense it to prevent it from depositing on the valves or pooling in the intake.regular injected engines have gas spraying on the valves witch has a cooling and cleaning effect.

Let me ask you a question real quick, what about running a system like this for the pcv:



Essentially it blocks off the line labeled 1., and puts a breather on the end of it for the purpose of not letting that blow by get past it and burning it out if it needs to while still holding vacuum. It’s plugged off at the top of the intake. And line 2 from the bottom of the crankcase and the cold air intake is still there.

Will a system like this damage your engine?

I don't know enough to answer that accurately, but since 1 runs off vacuum from the intake manifold, I'm not sure it would function properly. 2 is the breather I believe.

So what’s the flow of travel of the blow back? I’d assume it where the inlet of the catch can is correct? Which would be where the inlet hooks to the breather, holding vacuum
