Hey Guys,

I just ordered Corsa Sport Exh and Kooks LT headers w/HighFloCats (thanks marylandspeed!). I have a friend who will be putting everything on and dyno tuning, so figured I might as well get everything done at once.


I'm looking for a complete install package for Intake Manifold/Throttle Body/CAI. Only package deal I see is on JDM for $1549 do you guys know of any better deals or setups? I was really looking for the GT350 Intake Manifold, but I would go with others like Holley Sniper as long as it fits on a 2016 GT PP with the brace.


Also do I really need to switch out the stock intake? From what I’ve read it doesn’t seem to be adding much if anything…

You can get the superior cobra jet and then a GT500 throttle body off ebay for much cheaper. I'm considering that route.

That's what I'm doing. I've already cut my hood and gathered almost all the parts I need to install it. I've got about $970 total into it including modding my PMAS MAF and filter to fit the CJ.

I got a brand new GT500 throttle body for $90 shipped and CJ costs $800 or less with forum discount from some of the venders.
What's the power difference between the gt500 throttlebody and the monoblade or twin 65?

Twin 65 makes 3-4 over the GT500. Monoblade makes 4-5 over the twin 65mm. I'll go monoblade eventually but for an extra $500 it's barely worth it. Twin 65 is a waste it's more than the monoblade lol.

I already got UPR's motor mounts to help out with smoother shifts AND to lower the engine so I don't have to cut my hood. That would make me a bit nervous as well.

Yea all that cutting and modification makes me nervous as well. Guess I'll be going with the GT350 intake manifold package

If you get the motor mounts you will get all the other benefits from them and still be cheaper than a gt350 manifold kit.
