[WLJohnson05]

im doing this on mine as soon as i get out of school at the end of this semester. it shouldnt be too hard

CRT RACING PERFORMANCE | chris offers a partial kit with all the big stuff ya need, then just some little stuff u can get at an automotive store like extra hoses, etc.

VAP Auto - Windstar Kit vap has the full top to bottom kit

you are gonna need a hood that can house it tho

well honestly the cheapest way to go is looking for the parts you need, in scrap yards

well the benefits is it flows better

the common swap that you see is the 96-98 upper intake. it flows better then a P&Ped stock upper intake.

however there is also the 01+ swap. this is less common because you need both the upper and lower intakes. as well as the fact that there is no way to make it fir under the stock hood.

and it isn't to hard but there is a good bit of fabing you will have to do. however the kits will help to eliminate some of that.

a new hood is a must?

from CRT-Performance:

96-98 Windstar intake includes:

- 96-98 Windstar split port intake
- All the bolts required to bolt on to your lower intake
- All gaskets for runners and throttle body as well as IAT

Options:
- Coil brace to hold your coil
- Windstar Throttle body
- Shaved IAT mount to fit stock hood
- EGR Delete

so yes you can use your stock hood if you order the Shaved IAT mount also

it is a must for the 01+ windstars

the 96-98's can be modified to fit under the stock hood

even if it didnt give any hp gain, i think i still would do it. I think its alot cleaner looking.

that is very true.
it also makes it easy to make a really sick direct port N2o set up




i was planing on going the rout of the 96-98 windstar but then decided that i wanted all the power i could get so i decided on another path.
