This air box converter was developed on this forum. It's available on eBay now. Whether you plan on a free flowing exhaust and adding a PCV or not, getting plenty of air intake should be part of your plan to get a power increase on your GT.
  The kit gets the stock air filter out of your air box. Now the cylinder can suck in filtered air, not an air filter. There's a link to a video to show the installation and performance of the mods on a Continental GT.

No Jako. This is for the Continental GT with the air box that's filled with an air filter, instead of air. The kit gets the Spectre high flowing air filter out of the air box. This gives the cylinder the quantity of still filtered air it needs.

I can recommend this kit.
I bought it last year. I hesitated initially because of the costs, but this is mainly due to the low unit numbers and it is high quality processed.
I have inserted the stainless steel funnel so far into the intake hose that the overall length of the intake is tuned to the rev range with the highest performance. With my engine this is the range from 4500 to 6000 rpm.
The effect on my GT with the Hitchcocks Performance Kit is amazing, once the funnel slipped out of the hose and I noticed immediately the reduced engine power at high revs.


Great workmanship,

Jerry
