Morgan-Tec Intake Installed!

[MachineVX]

Looks like a much better fit than the Weapon R I currently have installed. I'm looking forward to getting the Morgan Tech

How long does it take to receive this, once it is ordered/paid for? Also, I went to the site and it only listed the Axiom model, how do you order the VX version?

Currently i am working on a two week out basis. That means that it will be two weeks from order to ship date. As far as ordering on the site goes, i am still updating it and have not added a VX button yet. So if you want to order that way please click on the Axiom button and add VX to the comments area as well as a powdercoat color if you so choose. Thanks again for the comments guys.

Well based on a guestimation, my fuel ecomomy has (THANKFULLY) improved. Mike said his car computer registered 2 mpg improvement. That would mean my average of 17.5 is closer to 19-20. Well I will say that my car now is getting near if not over 430 miles per tank, maybe more but hard for me to discern as I'm not going to run my car to it dies from no fuel.... HOWEVER, the added zip will also make your fuel mpg worse. If you are going to tenderfoot it everywhere then you can expect the added mpg. Hard to do with a vx.

Joe,
Keep us posted on your progress with the heat shield.

I believe that if i were to run my vehicle to the last drop (reserves) I would yield 425+ miles. I drive 400 miles a week for work and back, and I fill up exactly at the reserve light coming on. I believ the reserve is 1.7?? Anyways. I am happy with it, and am working on acold air box, and considering heat shielding for the plenum

maybe i should look into a tune-up or injector clean; i'm only getting 300 miles to a tank, and that's draining down to fumes...

The Morgan Tech Intake I received had a red powder coat finish, looked good, and was a great fit. It's a big improvement over the Weapon-R one I had on previously. I'll post pictures soon.

Yeah, no kidding 400+ miles per tank?!?! On a good week I might hit 300. Even on road trips I don't make it much past 320. Now those figures may be off a bit due to larger tires, but at best I figure I'm not getting more than 350. So can you guys in the 400+ club give us some tips on how to get better gas mileage??

I get 325 a tank with 70-80% highway driving. I can get over 400 with 100% highway driving.

My bought new '01 with less than 30K miles averages around 16-17 mixed driving. The eBay '99 IronMan with over 100K miles averages 18-19 mixed driving and feels peppier. Go figure!

I religously use redline injector cleaner. I use only premium. I've used lower grade with poorer feul economy. Above 4000 ft I will use 87 due anything higher is of no benefit due to the atmospheric conditions. Lastly, make sure your tire pressures are on point, and I actually go a few psi over, and then I did sythetics through out my whole car, diif, transfer case, tranny, et al. Power button always engaged, and lastly, drive with a even foot on the throttle. I make a point to flow, that help the most ....


I also installed the Morgan Tec, too, forgot to mention that as well. The improved air flow/performance can do as much to make your fuel economy bad as good.... throttle control you jedis
