Is there a reason no one uses the Mopar M1 intake? Seems like everyone here praises the Edelbrock intake.

Anybody ever run the M1 (Part #: P5007398AB)?

I am looking at putting the M1 on my 5.9 and would like some input.


Mopar M1 Intake: ($640.00)


Hughes AirGap manifold: ($599.99)

 

I think it's used for a higher power band which would reduce your ability to tow.

 

All the reading I have read says even the Hughes raises the power band. Unless I am not understanding what I am reading.

 

There will be low end loss with either, I'm tired of hearing otherwise. You need a few supporting mods to bring that low end back (and then some), the Mopar PCM was the ticket with my truck.

 

Guess I will probably stick with my kegger intake until I decide what else to do with my engine. I don't want to explode with a bunch of money right now, just a little at a time.

 

have you even tried the airgap? i have it on my truck. and there was no low end loss. there was also no low end gain. and a small improvement from the 2k rpms and up. and no mpg improvement. my plenum was not blown when i switched out.

and there is a loss for sure on the low end with the m1. the m1 seems to work alot better in dakotas. alot less weight to get moving.

 

yes there is a low end loss on both intakes but with supporting mods brings it all back, depends on supporting mods

 

Care to share?

 

everyone keeps saying there is a low end loss all i can do is tell you my personal experience by my butt dyno installed.

 

different cam, tuner, maybe 1.7 rockers.
