I'm new here............and this forum already kicks ass. I've been trying to gather info on our vans for awhile and this forum sums it up. Anyways, I'd like to add a turbo back system and a CAI. Can I get these off the shelf or can I modify some factory stuff. I see alot of you have these systems already, so I'm asking the experts for help. Thanks for any help you can offer.

Use the exhaust for a truck. Takes a lil work but not bad. No intakes available just a drop in filter from AFE.

Thanks Shop, What tools or skills are required for the exhaust. I've got sawzalls and regular hand tools. No welder or metal fab tools tho.

You need a sawzall and some mechanic tools. It's nice and open under the van. The only issue is the downpipe hitting the corner of the transmission. If you want a larger than stock downpipe you need to trim it to clear.

Thanks Joey, I read the thread with the down pipe needing to be flattened a little. Looks easy enough. I'll order parts in the next couple months, before it gets too hot around here. 95 degrees last Tuesday :eek:

Got my exhaust on today. A little different than I had planned but it works. 4 inch straight piped. What a great sound! Spring is hear, people outside, mashin the go pedal and heads turn.

Do you have to modify any of the hangers? and what other kind of work do you mean?

COOL! where did you get it and how hard was it?

Some of the hangers just do not fit exactly like on the truck. If you have any mechanical skills at all it is not bad. Also you need to dimple the up pipe or buzz a lil off the trans ear. Or buy the exhaust and have a exhaust shop put it on for you.
