2014 taurus sho

[lnp]

i just had a few questions figured id ask. my sho has 80k miles an its stock with a muffler an resonator delete. i was gonna do a ortiz performance power pack with the 170 thermostat colder plugs 2.5 bar map an the 93 tune they have on the sct bdx tuner. what is everyones opinion on that an also which is better the epp dual intake or the livernois windstorm?

Most people won’t recommend Livernois BUT the EPP intake is a good unit. I personally am tuned by GHT but I see another Ortiz tuned SHO at my local track and he doesn’t have any issues.

Those EPP intakes are more or less eye candy until you get bigger turbos than stock. Our factory air box with a K&N drop in filter flows more air then our stock hair dryers can use. If you are planning to get larger turbos then the EPP’s make sense. But other wise your money is better spent elsewhere such as a HPFP. With the upgraded HPFP you will be able to run an E30 tune which is more than enough to start breaking parts and hearts.

The only real downside to the stock intake system is that some of them leak a lot of air, some don’t. I had mine smoked tested and I believe every seem was leaking about 12psi or so.
