New VMP TVS elbows are in for the Cobra

[ModularSpeed]

I honestly do not think the JLT High Boost is a restriction on these set-ups. GT500/SCJ TB.

Yes, the TB is 5"...compared to the 4.5" JLT.....but, there is a lot of volume in the JLT intake....from the filter the the TB, at 4.5"....that's A LOT of air volume.

Senkak's car could/would be a great test. It is already making incredible power, but, would it make much more with a larger intake set-up? Maybe.

^^^ I now have the JLT HB CAI with the new GT500 TB .... dyno soon

(Pic with a Accufab TB)

 

[svt4me38]

I think it is as well



This is what i was thinking, use the driver side intake setup from the Lysolm Twin Screw, its a 5 inch setup comes all required hardware im thinking it may require a little work to fit perfectly on the passenger side but i think it would be a worth while addition.....ill be looking into this soon.....And a correction to my original statement svt4me38 made the suggestion to me.

Here is a pic of the setup:

Glad I could help!:beer:
Now get it and put that pig heavy vert on the rollers!

Ps.... Reminder, not sure what maf you are going to run but my tuner ran into issues trying to tune the vmp hpx maf with my setup, with the intake being so big it messes up the readings.
Which is why I went with a 05 ford maf sensor or you can run the gt500 maf.

Right, we make the VMP3500 maf for interim setups, more range needed than a stock 05 GT/V6/GT500 maf, but not all the range needed of the VMP5000/VMP HPX/BA5000.

VMP 3500 05+ Slot Style MAF Sensor: VMP Tuning - Superchargers, Tuners, Custom Tunes, & Performance Parts

VMP 3500 works great in a 100mm tube. The stock 05+ slot maf works well for the larger 123mm+ tubes, until you get to about 800rwhp and it can max out.

We tested larger and smaller short-ram CAIs on Rick's car with no changes in power output. That being said, I don't think the CAI needs to be huge, as there is no blade and shaft obstruction like there is with the TB.

To answer Chuck's question and any others, if there is a concern with your old elbow, we can certainly look at warrantying it. Please PM me on here.

^ Same MAF I have, it works great! I have always been a big fan of the VMP Slot MAFs, and have used them countless times with great success!

Project VMP 3500 + JLT High Boost + VMP GT500 TB = Results Coming Soon!:beer:

Looks good!
I secured the IAC relocation using the rear bolt hole on the coil cover.

Yup remember that was how I had mine at first. I plan on putting it back there. I was focused on getting it done.

 

[TVSCobra]

Its nice having access to a smoke tester, my couplers are leak free.

 

[ModularSpeed]

TVSCobra, can you please post a closer/better picture of your TPS?

Is it plugged in from the backside, or the front? I am not quite sure I can clearly tell which way you mounted it. Is the car running?

 

[timspony]

Just installed my GT500 plenum & TB ....I'll post pics tomorrow!

 

[timspony]

Here's what I did with justin's IAC block...IAC and TPS plugged in the stock location!!

 

[timspony]

Sneak peak ....waiting for a #96 clamp for the 5" TB ....should have it tomorrow!

 

[BMR Tech]

Very similar to how mine is set up sir. My hold up is running the JLT with a slot style maf. Soon...

 

[TVSCobra]

my idle block is coming.

My TPS is mounted facing the back of the vehicle.

Make sure flow path of air is the same for the relocation of the IAC. I didn't look at the pics, but the pre/post air into the IAC is specific to the ports on it.

Why not rotate brass fitting 180* so the hose doesn't have the bend and flows nicely along tbody and intake tube?

And remember a zip-tie on that hose at both ends

I wouldn't be able to plug in the TPS (without rotating that 180 deg. - and I'd have to lengthen the wires) - they would interfere with each other.... I took this path!!

..... clamps going on :beer:
