Welllll picked up my NBSS complete intake up today for $50. I'm pretty stoked about it honestly it's about time the Tahoe got something performance wise. I'm gonna try and use the nnbs fuel rails c5 return less fuel filter and go ahead and bypass the coolant line in the TB. Considering how high the x-link is to run the 87 mm, I think I'll go ahead and just buy the 4 to 3 bolt adapter for the time being. I know this swap is pretty straight forward and simple but if anyone has input please go ahead and chime in

How did you get it for $50? Nice deal.

I have read about a decent amount of people having issues with the xlink. Id probably go the route you did for that reason alone. I wonder how much real world performance improvement there is to be had with the 87mm vs the 79mm on an otherwise fairly stock setup. I know that the whole swap can be good for ~25hp.

Nice! Maybe its worth looking into throttle body porting. You should be able to open it up for cheap.

Getting bored with waiting on parts for my intake so I'm finding ways to entertain myself. Progress pics on painting my mirror caps. They turned out well for something I have very little money in and a can job at that. I did put a hairline crack in one getting it off though
