Can someone please link me to a nice cold air intake for the SVT (I've been looking for over an hour last night, I found some but I still thought I should ask for advice). I'm willing to pay up to $300, even more if its worth it. Thanks
That is with all the transmission upgrades and labor.
If you can do the work yourself you can do a 3L swap with headers for around $1500. With the transmission work of adding a Torsen and a nice clutch add another $1000.
That is IF you get some help and read a lot here. Call up Stazi also since he is starting to get good.  (just kidding man) Do a little reading in the old 3L posts. Check out some of our personal websites that you'll see in the signatures like mine below for inspirations.
Or just turbo your 2.5L economically.

Is this combo just for the SVT or can it work us wanna-bes with just the non-SVT stock Duratec?

If you read the forum name and FAQs/Stickies you would realize this forum is "Duratec Performance", not "SVT Performance".

Hey tour96se, I really like that intake you have, and I really want one... could you please link me to where I can order one for myself, I would really appreciate that  And about the meeting in Rochester, sure I'll go.  a lot of people here from Syracuse go to Rochester, not sure if thats the place but I know they go to Rochester very often... I have to check if my GF has planned anything this weekend first, but regardless I can always bring her with me :P -ado
