Then the vibration is more concerning. I put fender washers between the cross member and the isolation bushing. That seemed to eliminate the rest of the vibration. I had it up to 100 and I have zero now. But I also dont have the tremor driveshaft.
When you greased the splines, did you put the clamps in the exact same spot? Its a mistake I made 20 years ago and paid for it. So I mark these things now
Do you have a drop in filter too? I dont think my mpg actually went up but it requires less effort to keep my average up. I dont have to hyper mile to maintain over 23 mpg average.
These name brand intakes all do something but its typically the midrange bump that we all like. As far as max power, you would be lucky to gain 2hp. But you might gain 10hp at 3k rpm. But that is where the butt dyno feels the difference.
It looks nice! Any driving improvements? Smoother, faster acceleration as claimed on their website? Mpg boost due to less mass and drag from an extra u joint?
Worm gear clamps can throw off balance. I reused stock one in same location. End nippers to put it back on.
Lions Den has the best deals on lube by the way.
I have steel fenders too!?! Wtf ford. On a plus side you have a lot of goodies we dont have. On a negative side your transmission is probably much worse off than anyone 2023 and later. Do you have a warranty?
