Suggest a manifold and throttle body combination

[BackInBlack]

What is Gen 1 rwhp stock ? If you know

Most of the stock gen1 GT runs I've seen are about 360. 390 for the Boss.

Update: L&M have got back to me about cams and will ship to Australia so good to go there. Set of intake only cams.
Still waiting on the guys from AFS about the manifold and a twin 67mm throttle body.
Will contact Honeybadgers tuner here in Australia, thanks to Kevin for his contact info, and see if he does stock ECUs or can recommend someone who does that he trusts.

Spoke with Kevins tuner this afternoon, unfortunately he doesn't currently do ford ecu's.
He is obviously doing something right, his personal toy is an 800AWHP R33 Skyline.

Checked my email this morning and AFS have said yes as well. Looks like i may actually get this to happen.
Now as long as i don't add up the total cost i should be happy.
Have found a cold air intake to suit on an Australian web site to suit, drug money compared to the prices i see on US web site in US dollars. I hate our exchange rate.

Big shout out to Michael from L&M Engines, one week turn around from saying yes to "do you ship to Australia", pricing, packaging, shipping and turned up in Melbourne Australia.


Cold air intake is currently in a plane from Hawaii and probably almost over Australia also.

So this has come to a screeching halt.
Seem to have been ghosted by AFS after replying with my delivery details and options required back 7th June, even sent a follow up on the 14th checking in to see if we could get things going.
Does anyone know if he is still operational?
Got a bit disappointed and tried to see if i could approach this from a different direction, emailed [email protected] on the 23rd and asked if they could supply the manifold and throttle body i was going to get Bret to purchase via them and if they could get the manifold ported and then take care of the shipping as Bret had mentioned that it was a pain in the butt.
I'm now doubly disappointed as they haven't replied at all, hey a simple no we can't but we can supply the stock parts would have been nice.
I know our Prime Minister is a bit of a dick when it comes to international relations but i didn't think you guys didn't like the rest of us.
Have guys here offering to supply from Ford Performance but i'd really like to get the manifold cleaned up if i'm going to all this trouble.

Thats my little rant over, car are pissing me off at the moment, just blew a radiator on the jeep so it had to be towed. I'm down to my last backup vehicle.

Just an idea, I have found its better to have a shipping agent in Miami. Then the items bought in the US go to their warehouse and then they ship to me with a discount air freight rate. Its cheaper the your typical courier. Though its better to gather your loot for a bulk shipment of multiple items.

By the way, was the jeep a Landrover?

No, an actual Jeep Grand Cherokee 2020. It had previously done a security/steering lock module under warranty, the central locking has decided to stop responding and is throwing communications codes which was my first thing to be done once i had time that i didn't need it. Should have thought more about why it was taking so long to get heat into the cabin, didn't put the 2 together that lack of coolant would do that as i thought i had electrical issues. Lost a front indicator, daylight running light and fog light that then came back a couple of days later. Thought the temp fluctuation might be voltage issues, boy was i wrong. Luckily its winter here and i was watching the gauges and shut it down.

Yeah, i also know why you asked whether it was a Landrover, they don't get a good reputation over here either.

Had thought of the shipping agent but don't really buy enough for it to be worthwhile. i may have to rethink that option.

Not only your prime minister because of the Trump trade war and all the deals getting parts for a Mustang outside of the states at the moment is a little nightmare. Everything I order takes well over a month to arrive while previously was no more than 2 weeks. Currently waiting on a Ford Performance oil separator driver side that I ordered on 22nd of May should be here in a few days.

I'm still used to getting things delivered quicker from the US than i can get it from within my own country. Our interstate delivery is soooo slow.
Effectively 3 days from actual order for the camshafts.
3 days for the cold air intake.
Now if people would respond so i could actually order then i'd be a happy camper.

Did you try https://www.1320junkieperformance.com/ From what I have read and seen this is the most used vendor for Ported manifolds in All Motor Coyote as well as I think Steeda use them for the S650 stuff.

Just sent VMP another email then found Lethal Performance does the 1320junkie manifolds and VMP throttle body so sent them an email. Surely someone will respond to start with and a yes to shipping to Aus.

Sometimes things are stupid. I ordered the FP Track Pack from Levittown on Dec 26. Still not able to produce. No one seems to have the complete pack, but individual parts are obtainable. Go figure.

Will soon be cancelling the order as I am not in the business of loaning money interest free.

Some suppliers in the US just will not accept orders to Chile. So I had to use a paypal account and list a reshipper as the address. Really had no choice. In the end, it turned out cheaper for orders over US$2000
Am a Landrover junky I have three of them and the youngest has 250.000km so far. Funky beasts.

Lethal Performance for the win it appears. Return email with shipping price included.
Finally, woohoo.

Who is going to map the car ?

Who is going to map the car ?

The Million Dollar question.
I haven't found anyone yet in Australia for a stock ECU. The guy who did Honeybadger doesn't currently do Ford ecu's.
Leaning towards Shaun from AED after doing a bit of research. Seems like a very knowledgeable guy and very platform specific.
Still have to speak with Mustang Motorsport here in Melbourne and see what they are capable of or who they recommend.
