Upper Charge Pipe Install

[White Heat]

I got my UCP from Adam of Friday. I was impressed with the way it was professionally packaged. When I opened the package up I was extremely happy with the finished product. I had sent Adam my HKS bov and pipe w/flange for the bov. Adam removed the flange from the pipe and attached it to his UCP. Looks very nice!


This is it installed. It looks so good. The hose that attaches the UCP to the throttle body is one that I bought. I cut down the nicer one that Adam provided, but I cut it down too much to get a better fit and the UCP would pop off when I punched it. So I went down to my auto parts store and purchased one that would work.


Now for the butt dyno. I am extremely happy with it! My GT pulls really hard now. My wife and I went into Salem to eat and we took the back roads. At a stop sign I asked my wife to give me her opinion on any improvement she noticed. As I took off and went through the gears all she could say was "OMG, OMG". Man, my GT pulls really hard now! I am running with the AMX intake, the 2" ram air hose and Stage 1. I saw another guy on a different forum say he really liked Adam's UCP, but he didn't notice that big of a difference. He is running the stock airbox and Jim's Brand X turbo up pipe. I think Adam is right in that you won't feel the whole difference unless you are running with an intake. I reccomend running his UCP with an intake, his or one comparable. So I whole heartily give my endorsement to Adam's UCP. It put a huge smile on my face

I installed the uppercharge pipe and turbo up pipe kit from Prototypepower (adam) on my wife's PT and it works great. I agree with everything mean green said in his post about it, plus the gas mileage improved. Our kit is slightly modified from the original kits, because we wanted to keep the stock airbox (with silencers removed), and yet still be able to swap it out for an aftermarket filter without changing the pipes. Also, we have the Mopar BOV, so we opted not to have a flange for an aftermarket BOV put it.

Anyway, this is a nice mod to the car, and we're glad guys like Adam are out there pioneering products to improve the performance and looks for the PT.
