TREPerformance

C&L Performance is proud to announce another truly unique and innovative product for owners of 1999-2004 Lightning and 2002-2004 supercharged Harley trucks. This new upper intake manifold replaces the stock unit that delivers air from the throttle body to the inlet of the supercharger. During the development of this item, we found many improvements could be made over the original design. The most obvious of which is the fact that the opening at the blower end is actually smaller than the supercharger inlet. Roots style superchargers are extremely sensitive to restrictions on their inlet, and their actual efficiency can be improved by simply reducing airflow restrictions at the inlet side of the charger.

Dyno testing of this intake on multiple vehicles has shown a typical increase of 12-14 HP and as much as 24 ft/lbs of torque when changing the upper manifold by itself. When used in conjunction with a single blade throttle body, gains of between 19-21 HP and as much as 30 ft/lbs of torque are possible. A boost increase of slightly more than 1 additional PSI has been measured, due to the fact that the efficiency of the supercharger is increased through reducing the restriction of airflow entering the inlet of the blower case. This manifold is fully compatible with the Magnum Powers and Kenne Bell upgrade supercharger conversions without any special modifications. Due to the fact that it is possible that the installation this manifold may change your air/fuel ratio, an adjustment to your computer tune might be necessary to receive the full benefits of this product. This would be most likely on vehicles that currently have an aggressive tune. Vehicles with typical bolt-ons and a safe base air/fuel ratio are not likely to require any tuning adjustments. This product is available for immediate delivery, and is available either directly through us or any of our distributors.
