Some people prefer the plastic UPR power pipe over the metal Anderson piece because it doesn't get hot and stay hot as long. I've always ran the Anderson and liked it though.

I like my upr power pipe. Stays cool and does its job. I doubt there is any difference performance wise.

I would be interested in seeing the UPR pipe on a 94-95 mustang. From what I heard there were fitments issues (major)as compared to the AFM piece (which I have).

Don't mean to jack your thread but, what's the best way to install the upr powerpipe( cutting the inner fender), dremel? Hole saw?

Dremel would take too long, but it can be used to smooth out the hole after it is cut.

I used an air (circular saw) by hand.

Last word..be safe. After the hole is cut that hole can be as sharp as a razor blade (that is when I busted out the dremel to smooth it out before I put the split rubber hose around the edges.
