IPD 75mm plenum installed on my k24/20g by IPD Mike!!

Well i wanted to share my experience and i finally did it and wish i had done it sooner! The plenum was installed with a matching 75mm tb. i actually called Turbo Mike for a hand, he machined and welded a new end piece to my protomotive intake y pipe to match the new tb. Thru the intsall, Mike made sure everything went smooth, no leaks, and perfect fitment!
My 1st impressions, the car revs much quicker! Now while driving the car the throttle is very responsive and At wot you can feel the mid range power pulling much, much better!!! Overall i'm very happy with the added benifit the plenum adds to the car. I took some pics and will post shortly. I want to thank Mike for the helping hand with the fabrication and the installation. The plenum overall makes the car pull better thru out the power band!

Congrats Tito. I actually was on the phone while Mike was working on your car and pretty sure had cigarette in his mouth still LOL. Take some pics of the Y-pipe and post them when you have time. Gotta throw in a video of the new exhaust sound too. Way to go Tito.....

Please tell me the that when you punch the car feels more crisp and the spool time feels quicker. Definately gotta dyno that thing, I bet the spool time has improved. My car became a different animal as I remember it clearly. Which non-ball bearing GT28 do you know of that hit 6.14s from 60-130? It was not me it was the car Congrats again bro!!!

it does make a difference, the response is much better and turbos kickin 300 rpms sooner. i have a previous dyno with out plenum/tb. i plan on dynoing soon but i have also added a 3" catless exhaust. The car definatly feels better!

Very strong. Is your torque around 600? I will dyno after my install as well. Please get some trap speeds and 60-130's soon. Great numbers, I hope to be close to 600 myself.
