Livernois pi intake kit
 
Hey guys just had a few questions regarding the livernois pi intake kit ,first i was wondering if anyone on here had done the swap already and what kind of difference i can expect from the swap.Right now my car currently has jlt cai,bbk 75mm throttle body,75 mm plenum,under drive pullies,tuner,msd coil packs,magnaflow cat backs, x-pipe, 3.73 gears and i have a lentech street bruiser tranny sitting in my basement awaiting install.I am still planning on doing a full trick flow top end complete with twisted wedge heads,intake and cams (possibly long tubes as well) But seeing as how this is a pricey swap it may take me some time to buy all the parts needed for a full top end swap.It may take me up to 2 years to get everything together and the money to pay for someone to do the swap for me so i was looking for more things i can do in the mean time while i am waiting on getting big power.I was thinking about doing the livernois pi intake kit, 24lbs injectors and 90mm maf along with an aluminum driveshaft this winter so my pony will be alittle more fun to drive over the comming summer, Any thoughts:wiggle:

It will definitely help out as the runners are larger in diameter, but you might need to have the air fuel ratio checked out because it will allow more air in, and plus adding 24lbs injectors you will need to anyways. In my opinion, i wouldn't change the injectors till you do everything else anyways.
My GT is cammed, with a ported Bullitt Intake with twin throttle body, and i am still running the stock injectors. Never even crossed my mind to upgrade at all. No signs have shown that i needed to yet. Buuuut then again, my GT comes from the factory with 21 lbs injectors (they are pink).

I think my 96 has only 19lbs injectors i think they are an orange yellowish top.I just dont know what else i can to get alittle more power besides the pi intake and larger maf and injectors while i take my time and begin my top end parts build up.I just hate losing races and i want to get some more out of her for this commng winter.And i was planning on installing a livernois pi intake,90 mm maf,24lbs injectors,new fuel rails and bbk fuel pressure regular all in one afternoon. I have always wondered if i could find pi intake adapters and put either the trickflow or typhoon intake onto my motor.

My advise to you is be patient, and don't waste any money, and keep it for your build. No matter what you try, you will not see a huge amount of gain with what you plan on doing as a "bandaid" to get you buy. You basically already have the main mods that are supose to give you that kick.
If you want that good seat out of the pants feel, do 4,10's.
Like you, i had 3.73's, they last me that one summer!!! Could not feel the difference at all..... so i went to 4.10's, and that is where i really felt the difference. It will leave smile on your face for days LOL!
Heck i've been tossing the idea of upgrading to 4.30's for the last 3 years or so!!! The only thing holding me back now is the ever forever rising cost in gas!!!! :banghead:
