We're right there with you. Prototypes take a lot longer than anticipated... every... single... time. These were suppose to be done at the end of February.
Anyway, we are hopeful to make it up to you guys with billet pron. Something to start off your mid-weekend right . |

We are well past that point. Also, 3D printing, while quicker, would have only allowed us to test fitment, and not actually running it on car for long. Fullblown ran into this problem with their intake manifold. We could have SLS'd the part but then you're talking about significant costs. |

It's a beautiful piece, but you'd better hope those fasteners never back out due to vibration and get ingested into the combustion chamber! Admittedly, this looks less likely once the threaded velocity stacks are put in place, but it still looks like a potential hazard.
This is a very well thought out piece, so what am I missing? Last edited by RJasonKlein; 05-03-2015 at 12:27 AM. Reason: Corrected a typographical error. |

So if one was to make ITB's then they would have to have them all as individual components so the runner length would remain constant? |

Ok it looks rearly nice but also looks expensive, two questions
What is final cost estimated to be What power gains on NA or boosted car could be expected ie what sort of hp\dollar are you looking at On an NA car everyone seems to be maxing out at about 35whp or so gain ( about 205-210wHp a dynojet) , probably cause your just maxed out on volumetic efficiency at the 7600 or so rpm you can spin a stock motor to with safety. On a boosted car you could probably just wind up the boost a couple of psi ?? to achieve gain. Im guessing this is aimed at the high end NA build guy who is going to spend large sums on building an NA motor that will hopefully hang togeather at 8500 or something ?

steve99: there might be another potential bit which would matter to me a lot, - if gains from this stack up with other installed bolt-on gains? This might be expensive, this might be not too much hp/buck .. but if it would allow +10hp above 35hp by other mods .. imho it would matter a lot.

Definitely agree. It looks wonderful but extremely expensive. I mean hell the full blown one is already a grand.

They are manifold ports. The 3 small ones accept 1/2" and 3/8" barb to -6AN ORB fittings. The larger is a crossover hose that will equalize any variation between the two plenums. To those who are thinking about the dollar amount only. Please keep in mind this is a prototype that was made modular so we can test a multitude of configurations to come out with the best intake manifold we can. Everyone is guessing at best what this will cost, ourselves included. Thanks, Eric |
