We're going to test directly on the car.

Wow!

how will u check for equal flow?

FullBlown · 02-03-2014, 01:48 AM

If needed, our neighbor has a superflow and with some simple tooling we can check the flow rates.

The main focus is the get the rapid prototype on the car to check fitment and to see if there are gains.

From there we can make adjustments if we need. This whole process usually takes some tweaking to get it right.

I guess any serious engineer would have done back 2 back comparison on flow bench from old and new

Agree, but what works on paper and theory, doesn't always work in real life. Its too early to assume all that.

There is a process we go through before we make a cast production product. This is just the first step.

How expensive is this going to be ?

I should have an estimated price in a couple weeks.

This has me curious, could there possibly be a short-ram mod to go along with this? Would that even be feasible/useful?

Tansey86 · 02-03-2014, 12:54 PM

Doesn't an intake manifold need to have different size/volume runners to be optimal for forced induction/NA applications respectively? Or is this going to be a universal fix for both?
