also had to cut/trim my driver side coil relocation bracket so I could clear the fuel rail adapter.
the bolts that came with the bracket were also causing the intake not to seat properly so had to remove the bottom 4 and just keep the top 4. (Proform Valve Cover w/ brackets)
Is this on Corvette or Camaro. I'm testing the fuel rail one more time, then will place the lid on. I know the lid will have to flex inward as my heads are 64cc chamber. The intake realy flexed when I bolted it down.

I'm willing to bet that L.O.D intake will give up a ton of power below 6000, then really shine from there up .
It was a error, I ment to say lid. The LOD intake isn't sustainable I belive for NA power. Runners are to short unless you only plan to sit above 6500 rom alot, then maybe.
I like how the carbon fiber inlay on the intake matches your CAI tube. Really nice looking!
Thanks! Its hard to build that intake tube as you have to epoxy the MAF bung and PVC bung which i modified from a MAF bung to accept 6AN line, to the carbon tube, took lots of planning and measuring and cutting. I purchased it from Anvil. Took it for s spin last night and from 3500rpm up my fuel ratio use to be 12.9/12.8 and now is 13.8/13.9 up to 6500rpm. This is even when I add 1% more fuel just to see what it would do. So the intake is working, i'm lean so i'm getting more air. I'm going to add 3% more fuel and see what happens. Dyno is May 10, on a mustang dyno so yes numbers are lower than normal, but i'm at 3000 feet above sea level. Also My last Dyno was with a Fast 102, so this will be one of the first true test to compare. I'll post results.
It looks different because whoever was running the dyno did the new run (red line) in a different gear (compared to the green/blue runs). So your comparison is completely useless here.
This happens when people don't know how to operate their dyno correctly. Also there should be no good reason to have the X-axis in wheel/drum speed instead of RPM (unless of course again the dyno operator has no idea how to use the dyno).

Dyno graph
Results are in and there not any better than my stock ls3 intake. I gain 10hp at 5500 to 7000. Ok, it does look better, however there has to be some paramters to produce a gains with this intake in my opinion. My heads 235 cam combo netted no real change only 10hp, it did gain but I expected more. Does feel better up top. Mid feel the same even though the numbers are a tad lower. Here is the dyno. LS3 vs XS. Life moves on and so will I.
