ASH GTX 2863 with 3inch v band intake. The fitment is honestly as easy at the 2.5 inch kit other than cramming in the 3 inch couplers under the headlights. Lube helps ;-). We also changed out the 2.5 re-circulation charge pipes for tial BOV pipes. The JWT filters were dropped for a set of 3inch slip on K & N X-Stream filters pictured later 3 inch all the way

MT ET Streets
Dual pumps and relays controlled by AEM, Power passes though the fuel pump hanger with a Radium Engineering 4 wire bulk head harness over the flaky OEM bulk head circuits. If you guys haven't seen the fuel stuff that Radium Engineering carries you should go to the site and check it out. Rear mount fuel filter and Flex fuel sensor with -6 aeroquip hose to and from BDE fuel rails
Working out the AEM EMS wiring and dual widebands.
Much less plumbing clutter with the BOVs over re circulation set up
3 inch intake piping snaked in underneath the 2.5 charge pipes.
ash manifolds dont hide.
Now on to the tuning with Jeff Callaway a good friends of mine and a well experienced AEM tuner. Once Z32 TT slick top owner, and tuned his AEM rb25 to a 10.8 quarter mile. Strapped to a Mustang Dyno we giver all shes got. ont he current wastegate preload only 26 psi was tapped but that didnt hold it back much.
