I have a 98 f150 4.6l 5 speed and just did the gotts mod a few days ago and what a difference it makes. I had some 3 inch pvc laying around so all i had to buy was the rubber coupler. What a cheap fix for a awsome gain. I've been considering doing the silencer mod. Does anyone have any negitive feed back about it. thanks

 

Yes, it is a great mod. I did mine 2 weeks ago and I was suprised, throttle response is great now, and before i thought it felt "sluggish." Im glad i did it, I beleive the gain would rival a $200-$300 CAI. I dont know if the silencer mod gains power cuz i did em both at once. But my truck seems to have a deeper tone and it backraps now when i get on it, which it didnt before. btw im using a glasspack. Just make sure you take your time when takin the plastic pipes apart and use black weatherstriping glue cuz nothin else seems to work when gluein it back together.

 

so i was at lowes and looked at the 3 inch pvc pipe and was skeptical about that fitting dose it fit?!?!?! i couldnt decide so i didnt go on with doin the mod?

 

yes it fits. you just have to shave/sand it into an oval shape and then hammer it into the hole in the wheel well about 2 inches.

 

I have been off of here for a while, what is the Gotts mod?

 

i did the mod last week, pretty quick and easy to do, i think it took me like 30min. sanding was the longest part. noticed less hesitation when i hit the gas


its taking the stock tubing that goes through your wheel well for your intake out and replacing it with a piece of 3" pvc pipe, i think the stock tubing is what? 2"?

 

yeah, even less than that. i think its only like 1 1/2-1 3/4 inches.

 

o geez, yea definitely a good mod, easy and cheap

 

hmm seems like ima be doing it soon ..... and chad its basically modding your air intake so it will have a higher air flow if i could post yu the link i would but i cnt find it

 

here you go, i found the link
