Pics of my new blow-through set up

99mustanggtman · August 3rd, 2009, 08:30 PM

Working on my car all day today and made some good progress. The new set up is a CXracing FMIC, HPX PMAS, Vortech Maxflow Bypass, and a lot of cutting and fitting to make things work lol Also decided to clean up all the wires on the left side, paint my power pipe flat black. Hoping to get it tuned next week, looking for 420-430rwhp(on stock shortblock still)Let me know what you think.

Nice

You plan on building the block anytime soon? 420ish is a bit much on stock internals. Other then that, very nice.

Where's the maf? I heard it's best to put it close to the tb. Also by doing that if a pipe comes off anywhere under the car you can still keep driving. If it comes off after the maf it dies, but at least you don't have to jack the car up along road. Is the hose for the iac after or before the maf?

Looks good. What kind of clamp did you use to hold the vacuum line on the maxflow? At least it looks like theres a little clamp on there anyways.

I flipped the pipe so the sensor is hidden, it's the pipe right after the first one connected to the tb. I have the hose for the IAC connected to the power pipe still.

The line is really tight on the vacuum nipple thing so I don't think I need a clamp.

You have to have the inlet for the iac between the maf and the tb or you're pulling in unmetered air. If you need to clean the maf it will be hard to get to and it will get pretty hot there facing the headers. I have all my vacuum connections zip tied.

Hmm thanks, i'll move the iac line. I'm not too concerned with the MAF since i've seen others with the exact same one mount it in the same position. As for cleaning the maf, theres only 2 screws holding it in, so I can remove it pretty easily without having to pull the silicon hoses off.

If you can get the screwdriver in there then cool. What maf are you using?

HPX PMAS, hoping it's as good as everyone says.

It looks good. Very clean, too. I like how you hid the MAF on the under side of the MAF housing.

I want boost so badly.

I need so many other mods first though. I will be getting boost at some point. Not sure if I am going sc or turbo. I only have 11k on it right now.

Looks great!
