looks great, love this intake. How are the IAT’s?
I was one of the people that didn't receive the dirty air inlet with the rest of the kit so I drove it for a week without. It's installed now so I'll monitor them this next week.
It's going to be 100°+ so it will be a good test.

@Rpinaiii yes I did. I really want to lengthen the hose coming off of the valve cover a bit. I think it would sit normal then.

Ok. So the engine cover still fits then. I haven't put my cover on yet. Cool. Yeah a longer hose would be better. The can tilts a bit. I wonder if JLT would sell just the long hose part.

I'm going to look at the factory hose tomorrow and see if I can use it somehow. These molded hoses aren't easy to work with.

How has anyone figured out how to fit the Ford Performance oil separator bracket around the new throttle body? Ford states the oil separator can be used on the 2019 Bullitt, which uses the same throttle body.

Do you have a picture? I looked it up but not sure exactly how it is mounted. If it is tight near the throttle body sensor, then you might just put some thermal tape around the hose to protect the sensor.

Here is the separator on a 2019 GT with stock air inlet/throttle body.

Guys can you here the intake now that it's a semi open intake. Wish you can hear some intake noise along with the exhaust.

I googled and seen some bullit or gt350 pics and that separator works but its tight. There are a couple of threads in the forum about that as well.

Air inlet installed and everything back together.
The good news is that everything fits back together much easier after a week of driving.

I really like how you cut your engine cover instead of the hole for hose you removed that whole front part. How did you do it? Tools? Cause just cutting the small hole i did was a pain. That material isnt the greatest to work with.

that 42 lbs is supposedly supposed to be at 2000 rpm. which looking at my graph is only a 10-15 lbs increase at 2000...
The dyno run you posted starts at 2300RPM and ends at 6600RPM. Why don't these shops run their dunes from 1500RPM up to redline, 7500RPM in this case?

Anybody have this Power Pack kit installed on a 2018-2020 Mustang GT 10 speed 300A yet? If so, I would like to hear about how the car improved with this kit installed.

Thanks

Thanks, I was trying to make it look factory instead of an engineering afterthought. It's awful material to work with as it seems to have a low melting point. I used a dremel with an assortment of attachments, none of which worked great but got it done. I finished it with sandpaper, by hand and on a block.

I think I read that dyno runs get cut off early because the car hits the speed limiter before redline.
