They did some mild port work too. Still impressive.

It’s not a Mustang, it’s a truck. What are the torque curves?

I dont think that intake was designed for pulling.


I will be interested in the 7.3 once it hits 450/500 stock.

Honest question, what will it do at 500 that it won't do at 475? What threshold does that cross other than the first number being a 5? Not trying to pick a fight, I'm honestly asking.

It will make ones Buttometer feel much stronger. After all, a 5% improvement in power will definitely be noticeable..

Thats the number in my mind they are sandbagging from.

It would be getting close to or over the early 2000s diesel trucks in power. That’s enough.

Currently driving a 6.7 so it would be a downgrade.
