My 3.8 is on the way, and I'm looking into an intake as well. I see Legmaker makes an intake Legmaker Whipple Intake but the biggest throttle body size is 112, like you I went with a 130. This one might work with a different silicone coupler though.

So here my thought with a coupler. Maybe it isn’t a noticeable enough of a difference but technically that would be a choke point.

I did just look at that page again and now realize that the intake tube tapers down to 4.5 inches. I'm going to email them and see if they have plans to make one to accommodate the 130mm throttle bodies.

Fab one up or have that 3D print guy make one, heck I’d do it and make a small fortune selling to these 3.8 guys.

Already patent pending 🤫😉

Billet or cast version of the 3.8?

Billet, it’s one of the pre production units I bought off a friend that won’t have his car going this year. I’ve been told all the actual customer units will be cast.

I don’t disagree, and guess we will find out soon. I ordered one then a 4.5 inch to 5 inch coupler through HPS just to get the car going. I’ll wait and see if someone makes an intake tube to go the the 130mm throttle body or make my own.

Just kind of rushing to get the car back together after my Whipple 4.5 ate a bolt and seized up the first track rental this season.

 

[Hickster]

Use a finishing tule. A 1lb hamma. Tat'll finish er.

Gotcha. I am trying to wait for the cast units...

If what I was told is correct, the cast units will begin production in August.

 

[Hickster]

What a selling ass pect. K & N.

Yup... That is what I am hearing as well. 60-90 days out.

Figured id update this thread as they now have a CAI for the 3.8 Whipple with a 130mm TB for the Trackhawk at least lol.

Not that that does most of u any good but im sure there are a few Trackhawks owners here going this route sooner or later.
