I run the 5.4l and wanted a new throttel body going up to a 70 or maybe higher while the spacer new throttle body and k&n intake kit work together? And if so is their anything else i will need to do. Like chip change thermostat? thanks

 

Are you running a K&N or looking to add?
I have a buddy in Va Bch, nice area.

 

i have the fipk kit to put on the tb but i wanted to make sure with the spacer and the new throat everything will fit. Va bch is nice kinda rainy this week amost 3 inches in like 3 days maybe some sun next week.

 

Keep me posted, would like to hear how it goes. Thanks!

 

Will due, its gonna take me a week or so to get it all together and on but I'll throw up the numbers when i get done. Im putting a 75mm tb a high flow mass air sensor a 3 inch throttle body spacer and a fipk kit by k&n gonna All but the fipk kit are from ford racing.

 

Purchase online or local?

 

some was local all but he fipk kit Kimnack ford is a ford racing dealer so i can get parts direct from them but truck performance had some good deals too. cheaper than i could find around hear.

 

Keep me posted, I'd like to see how it comes out.
I think we're sending some sun your way this weekend.

thanks i sure could use some sun i've been couped up in the house long enough im starting to get antsy.

 

Be prepared for a HEAVY/ANnoying whistle from the TB spacer. They are NOTORIOUS for a terrible whistling sound thats drives people insane. I am personally not a fan of the FIPK due to the consumption of hot engine compartment air.
As far as the 75mm TB goes that should give you a boost. I am going to install one in the near future.
Good Luck.

 

The spacer i am using is the jet pwr-flo no wistle. I went with the mac throttle body air force intake and a pro-m mass air meter. I still don't have that yet they are taking their sweet time sending it to me.

 

1999XLT,

Have you looked at the Volant system?

Volant Pricing

I am almost ready to order, doesn't pull engine air; looks like a good option. Any experience with these?

NOpe never seen them before. I have a mustang (90 notch back) and i haven't had any problems. i just a tube and the filter. I would think any time you put it in a container you are restricting its air flow potential. Plus as long as it comes out by the hole from the old set up i wouldn't think is would suck hot air anyways. I could be wrong though about this

 

TC,
Volant is the only manufacturer that I am aware of that make a complete replacement for the stock system that utilize true colder outside air. A little pricey though.

I chose to go with th WMS velocity tube and a K&N Filter. for a total of about $140.00.Click Here for more info on the Velocity Tube. They utilize the stock air box and replace everything else. You remove the stock air inlet and replace it with a piece of 3" Hose. Connect the tube to the air box and TB and you are good to go. Took about 15 minutes to install.

 

Looks like a good combination, but the best pricing I could track down was about $165 to $170 for the set. Thanks for the info.
