so i have been looking into the windstar intake kit, but 1/2 the things in the kit i wouldnt need like the egr stuff. so basically what i am getting at is would it be smarter just to go buy a new windstar intake and gaskets and everything else i would need? any advise is good advise i was thinking about doing it this weekend but i just dont know what all i would need and what year intake. thanks Chris.

i tried to open it but my computer is a pos and wont let me view it
its just a thread on the top of the v6 tech page which you are currently on
If the first link within that thread won't load for your computer, scroll down a little bit, I put that write-up into a couple different formats and they are a few posts down.
i tried all of them. none worked. my computer has seen its better days lol i think i will prob order the kit this week. should i get the tb too?
I would suggest using a friend's computer then. The kit is anywhere from $300-$500 depending on who you get it from, and you could do it yourself for less then $100 including getting the intake from a junk yard.

Either that or use the $400 you will be spending on that kit, and get some gears, you will get much more enjoyment and performance from those for that kind of money.

. . . .Unless he can fab stuff up himself in a short amount of time, I would get the kit, especially if its his daily driver. Its worth the money imo for how well the kit is put together. Yeah, gears and lsd is better, but the windstar is one of the best bolt ons you can do for your car, imo. The kit is worth it to me.

I think gears and tlok is the way to go, although I really love the way the windstar intake looks under the hood. If you can find a cheap kit with everything included then go for it, but for that kind of money like everyones been saying, just do the gears and tlok, I know you'd feel a greater difference with them as opposed to just the windstar intake. Also, since you already have the tuner, you're already a step ahead because recalibrating the computer to suit the new gears is just a tune away.

could i put a windstar intake on my 95?
Completely different heads and intake, so no.
Actually you could but you have to swap the heads as well cause of the split port verses the single port design which yours has.

Whole lot more than that to be done for the swap, it's hardly worth the effort really.

Thats true i was just giving him the quick answer. I believe there is a whole sticky somewhere here about the swap.
