Thumbs up Re: 502 MPI Help

I think you might well get 2mph. I put on EMI Thunders and modified my intake suppressor on my '99 454 Mag MPI and gained 1-1/2 mph for the exhaust and 1/2mph for the intake, then lost 1/2mph to a drive shower. Those cast iron Merc manifolds are boat anchors! I also installed an adjustable fuel pressure regulator but the fastest boat speed ended up being at the factory pressure setting!

WOW 113-132 HP gain I am sure that it is going to help but I would bet that the biggest increase is going to be seen in raising the rev limit. Keep us posted.
