We have done an intake. Haven't had enough time to do much testing on them, we built three designs and did some preliminary dyno testing of them but then the card had to go back to the owner before we could really dig into it. Then we switched gears to the header as soon as it came back. Tomorrow we go back to working on the intake designs.

Can't wait to see what the new catless header is capable of. The catted header that made those power numbers listed earlier on in the thread was really a compromise. There is an optimal length for the secondary tubing on the Tri-Y design, and inclusion of the catalytic converter required that we shorten that by a substantial amount (~5"). So here's the optimized catless design:







Just got done wrapping that design up (literally and figuratively), and plan on getting it out on the road for some preliminary tests here in a few and then continuing that testing tomorrow and fianlly taking it to the dyno in the AM on Friday, then back to Tainen for a dyno day he'll be attending hosted by @virtual_bob in Auburn, WA this weekend.
