Has anyone ran this and if so, did it make a difference? they claim 50 ft lb of tq. and I believe 17 hp.

 

ordered mine should be here tuesday/wednesday maybe dynoed by weekend

 

I installed mine last week and have noticed no real difference. I like it though and I am already using the ports on it. I am in the high 500 horsepower range so I really didn't expect to be able to feel 17hp. My EGT's seem really good lately and that could be from the Bladerunner but not sure. It is definately the best looking intake manifold you can buy and it really does seem to be quality piece. It is alot larger than I thought it would be and took me longer to install than I thought. Anyone else give up on trying to attach the wire looms on the back. I had no room between a fuel line and the bolt to get the hangers on the bolt. Good Luck, Tom J.

 

I too have the blade runner installed and my sop meter doesn't register any more power but like BigJohnston said it sure looks good.

 

Just installed mine.....and I do notice a difference.....not in SOP meter, but in spool-up. This little 62 spools pretty quick with 670 hp, but the blade runner helps it spool that much quicker....The 17hp they claim is @ less than 2000rpm, and I can probably say it may show that on the dyno.....mostly beacause of the 200-300 rpm the turbo hits full boost quicker.

 

I have had mine on for about a month now and I too did not feel a real big change put the turbo does spool better and it looks darn cool on there as well!! Egt's are good too. Under wot I hit only about 1100-1200 with the mods I have now, so I am happy. Did any of you guys have a problem with getting the oil dip stick to line up right?

 

I noticed the biggest improvement while towing at low rpm.Just like it dyno'd.If you make it to the sema show look for the AFE booth.you just might see some other bladerunner products

What was your EGT's before the blade runner?

 

Man I glad I did not waste the money then. Those blades may work with vacuum but put pressure against them........
I can see getting rid of the choke down with the stocker but I'm not sure if a smooth round 90* would be the best.

 

Not to sure if I remember clearly but I think I would hit 1300 to 1450 easy under hard acceleration. Don't know if the intake lowered it a whole lot, all my mods have netted the egt temp

 

did you ever get dyno results?

 

That's why I went witrh the GDP intake, simple to the point. Better spool up and low end but no gages can't tell EGT yet.
