what kind of power gains can you expect form this? I have a early '98 SVT?

With a '98 SVT I'd say you can stand to gain a few more ponies over that estimated 5-7. You should also read this post.

1) I know a normal UIM gasket will not work, but I assume the SVT DH UIM gasket will work as its only 13cfm.
2) Since this is guranteed, is EH going to send a certificate back with this part flow benched or whatever so we know were pushing 193cfm?

3) As everyone else has brought up, how we gonna know that 193cfm on a standard UIM is doable.

4) Was the prototype a non-SVT UIM?

1) Get a Felpro gasket (check the 3L FAQ for a p/n). It should work just fine.
2) Don't know.
3) Are you asking if a standard non-honed UIM will allow for this honing process (i.e. enough excess material)?
4) No. SVT UIM. Don't know what year.

Scott & others interested - It was DemonSVT that I talked with about 13cfm. It's pretty well agreed upon that 7.2% isn't much more rate for us dual honed folks. But, if you've got the flow to back it up, you should see 5-7 whp with this mod. If you've got a stock SE engine, don't expect to see a whole lot from this mod alone. Again, you've gotta have the flow to get the most from the mod.

That said, it's not bad bang for the buck. 7hp from a 600+ exhaust system isn't unheard of around these parts. If you're planning future mods (3L, turbo, more N/A power) this is probably a good idea.

If I were you, I'd include a gasket for them to match your UIM to. Of course, state why the gasket is there in the first place...

That is because there is an SHO group buy going on at the moment too. Anyone with an SHO, price is $297 + shipping.

Will the Extrude Hone process widen that too?

Pete and I noticed some interesting things yesterday when cleaning the SVT UIM and putting the SE one on my car.

1. The routing from the EGR into the UIM (the groove where the TB bolts on) is different. The SVT is on the top side of the UIM, while the SE comes out the bottom.
2. The opening from the TB is much smaller. Looking through it, we could actually see the edges of the hole going into the UIM. Will the Extrude Hone process widen that too? It seemed like that would be a restriction for anyone running the SVT TB.
