[QUOTE="MinGrey02Stg2, post: 16841458, member: 16543"] Good thread and nice to see lots of people working on their own things. I'll be building another Ultima RS for another owner who just doesn't have the time. It will be an LS7 or similar powered car and orange like mine. Barring any delays, I'd like to have it finished early 2023. I'm just about ready to put the side pods of the body on. [img]https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52491296988_69a9aa733d_c.jpg[/img] For my own car, I've been battling issues with it just not making the power it should and I think it's caused by this small 3D printed throttle body relocation tube. It's amazing that it can even flow enough air for the 750whp it currently makes. I bought a welder and watched some YouTube videos of how to tig weld aluminum, then dove right in. I came up with something that makes much better use of the space and should flow a considerable amount more. The stock one- [img]https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52491306908_5a324e1829_c.jpg[/img] How it looks in the car against the firewall and allows a front feed throttle body to be relocated to the side- [img]https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52491224875_e2336a7a90_c.jpg[/img] Proposed fix/creation made from 1/8" aluminum and new 103mm Katech throttle body (needs to be on a dyno to see results)- [img]https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52490259937_93f3efa6c8_c.jpg[/img] Compared to the stock one- [img]https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52491214980_f758df6f00_c.jpg[/img] In between building the other Ultima, there's a paralegal I know whose boyfriend bought his father a 2000 Mustang GT brand new, but it's been sitting for 12 years.
