I need some info for my sn95 setup

[5.4 speedster]

I have ordered a novi 2000 for my 95 with 331 stroker and h/c/i. I am looking for 450hp at the wheels as this is my daily driver. I live in Arizona so I was looking into various forms of charge cooling. My mechanics said that I should go with an air to air intercooler. So I did. The intercooler is already to be fabbed up but I have some questions. I guess nobody runs intercoolers with novi2000's on 94-95's. My mechanic said they are going to use 2 1/2 inch piping for the intercooler. Is that big enough? I haven't asked them how big the custom powerpipe is going to be but should it be 4 inch piping? Help me understand what it needs. Also, when I get the novi installed should I just install the powerpipe and not worry about the restrictor plate? Should I remove it, and if I do will it void the warranty?

can't help you but I am sure some one on here can. I added a post to see if you could get me some picks of the intercoller set up. I also have 95 cobra and was thinking of adding one my self. I just need to get an idea were to mount it and the piping

Yeah no problem. They haven't started the fabrication yet so i will get pics up as soon as they start.

Yes your power pipe should be 4 inches. I just put on a UPR Power pipe on mine and got rid of the stock set up. As far as I know removing that aluminum restrictor peice that comes w/ the stock piping set up will not void the warranty. I pretty sure that only opening up the head unit or changing the pull voids the warranty.
