Never had a Northwind before but typically (speaking from history) a GOOD NA manifold will be a good Boosted Engine manifold as in reality all you have done is change the Density of the Fuel and Air Mixture (with boost) and the CFM of the air/fuel is very close to the Naturally Aspirated CFM Air/fuel flow.
Because the Air Density is higher you need more fuel to maintain the same air/fuel ratios. Never heard anything bad about the Northwind intake only good. Tom V.

Thanks Tom, It is a little shorter than the victor so hood clearance is not an issue. rpm range seems to match my cam well. I have the knock off HSD on it now with a spacer plate.

UGH! PM me your email or text and I can send them that way if you wish, and/or take specific pics you'd like.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
