does any one reproduce the 1992 slp T intake system or does anyone have one let me know
Tommy

 

no i dont think it was reproduced, but once in a blue moon one pops up for sale like on ebay or even on here for quite a bit of $$$

i would try a parts wanted ad in the for classifieds, worth a t ry.

 

yea i know how rare that intake is some guy on ebay had one on a camaro and i tryed to ask him about it of if he would sell or trade it but he was a complete ******* but ill try the classified ad in a little bit i would love to get my hands on one

thanks for the response

Tommy

 

Why? Nothing special about it aside of what they cost these days.

 

there super rare flow better then a standard tpi and they r hot looking plus u get the performance and the holy **** affect where did u get that

 

Yea, I suppose if you want to pay for it then yea, wow, unusual.

I'd rather save my cash and go with the Stealth Ram or Super Ram. Both every bit as good if not better than the overrated T-ram... and if you need parts they are much easier to get. Try buying an end tank gasket for a T-ram.

 

yea parts could b a slight issue but idk i just like it ill most likly get the accel box ram

 

If the T Ram was soooo good, why dont they still make it? I know about the SLP fire and all, but no one ever tried to reproduce it? Like madmax said, save some cash, and try one of the up to date intakes out there.

 

that is a good point that no 1 has remade it or kept it going but isnt the accel super ram box and all that basically the same thing short dumps into the heads and smooth free flow?

 

The accel superam is very different. - The "T-ram" was a decent intake, but nothing compared to the HSR/Superam, especially when comparing dollar for dollar. - If you want power and "wow" look into the FIRST intake.

 

Doesnt that intake look just like a stock TPI?

 

no it doenst it looks like a box its hard to explain look up 1992 firehawk on like yahoo or something i think it looks really good and it flows a lot better then the stock tpi

 

No, i meant the FIRST intake looks stock.

 

Sorta, looks like an overweight TPI.

 

Kinda like a TPI on stereoids. It's actually smaller, but the runner tubes are much fatter(bigger). - I guess it woudn't have the "wow" of the T-ram, but it'd make more power and be impressive to those who know TPi...

 

that intake is really is a real wow for tpi owners cuz its so rare and basically stock performance and it does look like a tpi on steroids

here's a pic I found. Scroll down to the engine pic.

 

Maybe it's just me but the T-ram just looks out-dated to me. Doesn't really "wow" me at all...

 

it does look out dated but its cool lookin and i like it

 

Yea, it looks like it belongs on a diesel engine.

 

of course it looks outdated!sign of the times that was 16 years ago,i was never a firm believer of the T-RAM but it looked sooo intimidating especially to pesky mustang owners but it worked as good as the superram and mini ram waaaaaayyyyy better than the TPI

 

sorry the pic was scanned,we did not have digital cameras in 94

 

here

 

At one time, the T-Ram was pretty good performance wise, and pretty cool appearance wise.

Now, IMHO, it looks like someone didn't know better, and paid a buttload of money for an outdated intake.

Again, just my opinion. Cool points wise, NOTHING ever made looks as cool as a stock TPI. Performance wise, well, take your pic....but the T-Ram doesn't do either in my opinion.


.....but to answer the question, no one ever reproduced it. It would be a GREAT mod if they were easy to come by, similiar to say, a BW 9 bolt upgrade, but they're just SO rare that they're way too expensive.

 

very nice intake, but it's a pain in the *** if you need to pull a valve cover or adjust your rockers, since you have to pull the side tanks off.

this is on my friends 90 Formula 350

 

Yes, but the tanks dont seem too hard to remove, but I could be wrong.

 

see i like the way that looks im not saying that i would pay the world for it but if i can accross one for a decent price like around the mini ram or stealth ram i would concider it

 

You just stated that the Tram was nothing compared to the HSR and SR, but then suggest a FIRST? Would that be saying that the FIRST isn't a fair comparison because of it's limited potential, or that it simply blows away the HSR and SR???


Yes.... I'm busting your ***** and forcing you into a corner, because I'm getting tired of reading your sales pitches on the FIRST intake. Are you getting paid by them because if not, you should start trying to push that issue a little more since you do all of the advertising work already.

 

bust away!

no, I'm not getting paid, I don't even have one, I just do my research. IMO it's a great intake for a street car. Great power capabilities w/o sacrificing any driveability. Plus it looks swwweeeetttttt(much like the stock TPI). - hard to beat. but as I have always said, that's my opinion, it's up to you to do a search and do your research. In the end, you have to be the one to decide what you want out of it and how you're gonna drive it. I was putting the FIRST on the level of the HSR and the Superam, just adding the "wow" factor to it. I guess I should word things more carefully

...anybody know a good lawyer to write me up a good disclaimer???

 

- opinions are a big part ofwhat this board is for.

 

how does the lt1 intake compare to the stealth ram and mini ram system performance wise

 

you need to visit www.stealthram.com they have quite a bit of dyno info there

 

Shagwell - I have owned a FIRST, we'll talk in PM because I think you are misinformed about its power capabilities. It's still a limited LTR design.

 

im misinformed about what im confused i was just wondering how the lt1 compares b/c i live by f-body motor sports and they were saying that the lt1 mani would increase horse power over doing runnners and baseplate so i was just wondering if it is better then the mini ram or stealth ram.. y dont u ever see the stealth ram or mini ram on lt1 cars?

 

Where is this "First" intake...i cant find them online...noone posts links...not on ebay anywhere????? Ive just found out about this intake and i cant find anything on it anywhere

could someone plz post some links to info and websites
whats the sale price?

 

Here ya go, http://www.firstinjections.com/. The intake cost $995.
