Anyone have theirs installed yet?

Not yet...ordered from Ebay and it just got delivered yesterday. Going to buy a CAI and have to find the sensor/plug for the IM before installing it. Local shop quoted me about $250 for the install

I may install mine Saturday evening, already purchased the sensor. Buddy of mine that works on these cars said it’s pretty easy.

Where did you buy the sensor?

question about this sensor. if we buy the map sensor and plug it in do we have to do anything else for it or is it good to go. people who didnt buy the sensor are just tapping and plugging the whole. just wondering if i need to do anything other that plug sensor in and leave it unplugged?

It's a sensor that is not on the mustang. Plug only.

so even tho the sensor doesnt get attached to anything it just needs the plug inserted?

If you plug the hole with the sensor you just have to install the sensor. No electrical plugs since there is no electrical plug for that sensor in a mustang. The physical sensor is just there to plug the hole in our case.

I'll sell mine, going a different direction. $60.

Intake installed. Drove around block. Little bit of a kick for sure. Feels pretty close to S+ mode but all the time. Gotta get creative with zip ties on the fuel rail foam. Weird not having an engine cover.

A+ so far.


Side note. Probably just my imagination but I also notice a bit of "sucking" sound coming from the front of the intake after the throttle body. Could not find a vacuum leak though. Vacuum leaves appear to be higher than what I noticed with stock. 19-20 mHg vs 17-18 mHg. I am not entirely certain that is a good thing. Anyone able to confirm?
