We are working on the Fuel system side now. I anticipate a MagnaVolt will be used since we are using the LS9 injectors.

Damn! How is the fuel pressure at wot?

Still a FORD :hang:

It's never been about that for me. The Fords I've owned over the past several years have been more reliable than any of my past GM's, although here I am back in a GM.

Opposite for me.....The FORDS I have owned in the past were nothing but problems. Every GM I have owned has been great!

A dealer near me has a 08 that is still marked up...I think it varies from dealer to dealer. Some dealers like holding on to LP cars.

Guys, I have to say, this is car is bad ass, did I forget to tell you guys this car is really bad ass. Now that we know its at 500whp, I wonder what its going to do with the 2 other mods this next week on only 7 pounds baby! Will keep you guys posted with some pics and videos when done.

02 WS6, I do plan on maybe another pound of boost temporarily, until quite a bit more miles are put on. Then forge bottom end. Not that I wasnt already happy but, putting on the exhaust system and Vararam has made this car feel unreal!!!! What a great combination so far.

Opened up hood today and found Vararam pushing to hard on underside of hood. Had to remove Vararam. Guess I will be selling my 2 day used Vararam, and picking up a Rotofab or Volant.

As the Vararam housing comes up to line up to throttle body, it is being pushed down by the hood.

Ah, I think I understand.

You just had a straight shot from the VR to the Maggie?

I would imagine you would need a curved piece or a few 45s to line it up and have it fit.

1stGXPmaggie2.3
04-22-2009, 09:35 PM
In order to get a decent path to the TVS blower, the angle of the plastic housing of Vararam is tilted upward some. Because of that, elbows or no elbows the plastic housing to which the maf connects to hits the hood.
