So you want a hairdryer on your FTO? Or do you already have a hairdryer in it? This is the section for it. All other big power projects & forced induction goes here too.

I did and it didn't.
Having said that, the tip selection at Bunnings wasn't the best
All done now anyways

Amazing really how much 5mm does make a difference when you compare the two.
Be interesting to see the end results.
You have a current/ 'before' dyno graph at all Bennoz for comparison?

How will you clean the intake manifold to make sure no debris is left behind?

Just chuck it in the parts washer as per usual, it'll clean out ok.
Unfortunately I wont be able to give accurate before & afters because I'm doing other things to the car that will effect power readings as well. I'll be able to give a ballpark figure though.
As much as I'd like to give you all a before & after for every mod, everytime its hits the dyno, its $140 regardless of whether its on for 10 minutes or an hour. Then its $140/hr after that lol.
