Default Thinking of a Hogans sheet metal intake?Think again!Take a look...

Heres some pics of a Conleys sheet metal intake(on the left) sitting next to a Hogans sheet metal intake(on the right)



According to what ive read about custom intakes,you want plenum volume to be roughly 1/2 of the engine size(example 3.8 liter engine=1.9 liter plenum volume),the longer the runners the better for tq,and you want the injector location to be a few inches away from the valve for atomization.

And its for sale on ebay if anyone wants to go REALLY fast on stock style heads

How the hell do you close the hood?

Keep it shiny side up, but show them your dirty side once in a while.

11.3@123mph on 195/75/14" whitewalls. Yes, 195s!
11.2 on the big giant slicks. What's the point? Maybe I'll go back to the whitewalls. They are lighter and have less rolling resistance.

I was shocked when we set them side by side for the 1st time.I really thought Hogans were the "best" out there till I saw one in person,the welds and execution are VERY impressive but the design is not.

They both use modified Mustang tb's.
