Ported Intake Manifold Installed!!! Alright so I got it installed today (took longer than I thought), and I did notice more throttle response. Being that my car in not tuned yet (maybe May??), I am expecting more from it once it does get tuned. I didn't really notice any sound differences, but I really wasn't looking for that anyway. I didn't really have enough time to take it out today, so I will reset my Maximum G's tomorrow and tell you of I saw any improvements. Other than that, this is what I noticed in my 3 mile drive home from the shop. Maybe once I get it tuned, and a couple more mods put on, I will notice more drastic changes. Does anyone else have the Ported IM who have noticed more gains??

K&M on William in Cheektowaga. They charged me 175 to install it. Took like 6 hours LOL.
I bought it from fastproms on ls1tech. I think the ad is still in the classifieds.

I have SLP 1.85's. I found them in the classifieds here for 200.00. I also got some Intense oil restricted pushrods. I installed them with the rockers to prevent valve float since I used the stock springs. Those cost about 140.00 shipped and I have no valve float at all and they have been on there for about 10,000 miles now.
I am getting a ported intake as my next mod. Thank you for the review. That is the last piece of the puzzle for me.

nice, I'm thinking about getting a ported intake manifold and ported tb from them.
Or maybe the zzp tb that mgpeagle has.
Also rockers are next on the list for me as well!

I may be wrong, but isn't a Z-06 Cam too much for a 325? Getting rid of the cat and putting on the rockers really woke my car up on the top end and it is still a beast down low. I can't wait to get the proper tune once it is finished which will be in a month or two. I am also going to the track to see what she'll do. I hope it runs at the very least 13.2 or lower. I am hoping for high 12's but I think I am dreaming...

I would get rid of the cat, but it wouldn't pass NY inspection. I can't even the a hogan because it will throw a code and fail inspection! There are a lot of things I can't do because of NY.
