Single Port vs. Split PortSo the pros and cons of both if some people would care to share, please? From what Ive seen/read, I believe the split port set up is best. Thanks! |

Split port is a better intake and came on the 99-04 6ers...it added 40 hp more than the single port 94-98 6ers...the only pro of the single port is you can slap a super coupe s/c from on them

Pretty much the last part of what you said on the only pro of the single ported intakes is what I needed to know. So nothing good comes from single ported intakes. lol. That pretty much wraps this topic up. Thanks!

The primary advantage of the New Edge split-port engines over the SN-95 single-ports is the block reinforcement allowing for a higher redline, not the intake itself. For comparison's sake, specs are as follows...
1998 = 150 HP @ 4000 RPM 215 FT/LBS @ 2750 RPM 1999 = 190 HP @ 5250 RPM 220 FT/LBS @ 2750 RPM If you run the numbers, real-world performance difference isn't huge. One of the more significant improvements, although it has nothing to do with the engine itself, is that the New Edge mustangs came with better, steeper ring and pinion gears, allowing for improved acceleration over the older SN-95s. Of course this is made even more useful by the higher redline point, so yeah... |

oh i forgot to add the Splitport gives you more top end gains hence why the new edge sn95 has a longer and higher power band. and its max hp is achieved higher up in the rpm range.

The SN-95 and New Edge engines do not redline at the same point, and that's exactly my point! What does a '99 engine produce at 4,000 RPM? Not a hell of a lot different numbers than a '98, or a 96/97 for that matter. Different? Yes. Higher? Also yes, but not by 40 HP. 40 HP doesn't mean 40 HP, not all the time anyway, and not under all rotational speeds. Sorry bud, but you don't produce the same HP at idle as you do at redline, and that's the whole backbone of my argument if you'd have read through my post before posting your childish bs. The block didn't change, and that's not what I meant with the whole reinforcement thing, but there's a reason the redline is so much higher on the New Edge engines, and it certainly isn't in the intake. It does, however, account for a large portion of the massive HP difference between the two generations. You'd be hard pressed to find dyno graphs that show a genuine 40 HP difference between the two generations while the engines are running the same RPM. I never said the New Edge wasn't faster, because it most certainly is, I'm just trying to point out how exagerated the difference often is. |

:stupid 40 h.p more is always 40 more an example would be lets say u have 120 h.p at 3,000 rpm i would have 160 at the same rpm (is just an example) these r the only motor changes done.. beside the split port and I believe those changes where only made to accomodate the split-port 1. Ford: 1.a 94-98 Mustangs: 1.a Engine specifications: 3.8L 145 hp V6 Horsepower 145 @ 4000 RPM *note 96-98 +5 h.p Torque (lb-ft) 215 @ 2750 RPM Valves/Valve Configuration 12/OHV Displacement (cc) 3802 Bore X Stroke (in.) 3.81 X 3.39 Compression Ratio 9.0:1 Fuel Type/System Gas/SEFI 1.b 99-04 Mustangs: 1.b Engine Specifications: 3.8L 190 hp V6 Horsepower 190 @ 5250 RPM Torque (lb-ft) 220 @ 2750 RPM Valves/Valve Configuration 12/OHV Displacement (cc) 3802 Bore X Stroke (in.) 3.80 X 3.40 Compression Ratio 9.3:1 Fuel Type/System Gas/SEFI

Take a single port and race a split port the loss should indicate that it has more power
