ordering powerpipe tomorrow...will upr pipe fit single belt version?

[5.0 Hatch]

I need to order a powerpipe so i can get my air meter in the fender... anyone know of the upr pipe will work with the single belt version?

[5150 LX]

Not too sure on that one, but from what I've experienced and read feedback on all pipes need some modifications to actually fit right. Most need a trim to the rubber 90 that attaches from the pipe to the inlet side of the blower. I would venture to say that it'll work with some minor mod's, no worse than any other option out there.

i just got my upr pipe today .... any install tips?

[5.0 Hatch]

its a pain in the @$$ to install. I ended up having to cut my stock U pipe that came with the novi just after the bypass outlet on it. Then cut the powerpipe just after the bypass nipple on it, another words cut the nipple off. I then ran a 4" coupler from the powerpipe to the stock paxton U pipe. Let me know if you have a question.

The bypass nipple will probably be useless on the upr pipe because it ends up in a horrible spot since the single belt novi sits so for back.

Hmm.. sounds like a good time.. thanks for the help. when i pulled it outta the box the first thing i noticed was where they put the nipple... pretty bad placement... did you consider running like a 180 0r 90 degree elbow from the nipple so its heading in the right direction... i have this thing against cutting up stuff and rigging it together if it can be avoided... terrible habit... also did u see any boost gains or should i send it back ? thanks for the help :(
