Top end build question?


I am planning on putting on heads, cam and intake on my '95 5.0 motor. I want to use all TFS parts and match them as best as possible. My question is why do some parts like the cam and intake have a rpm range listed. What would happen if I had a TFS-r series intake with a stage 1 or 2 cam? Would it impede flow and be couterproductive or would it just flow better? The car will be primarily a daily driver but spending that kind of money I want to do it right the 1st time. Also what kind of computer issues will I have and what will have to be upgraded (computer, MAF, TB, injectors, etc.) with the new top end changes to make the car run correctly?
Thanks in advance,
CD

Since it'll be a daily driver, I suggest you go with the following:

TFS Twisted Wedge heads
TFS Stage 1 cam
TFS Track Heat intake
76mm or 80mm MAF
75mm throttle body
24lb injectors
255lph fuel pump
Dyno tune

That is a well matched package.

Throwing the R intake to the mix will only cost you low end torque and without going bigger with the heads and the cam, will net a MINIMAL peak HP improvement.

Stick with the track heat.

If your going with the track heat intake run the stage 2 cam, dont short yourself with the stage 1 cam as its pretty mild. Also get the upgraded valve springs.

...and before you buy it brand new and get robbed look for all the parts used. Alot of times you can find intakes and heads at a fairly decent price. Web Page Re-director has a very nice classifieds section.
