Not a sound choice for so many reasons, but it would look amazing.

Saw this at the N.Y.auto show

That's the same car @bur****jp linked to in post #362.

@nelsmar came through in a big way and let me borrow an engine for test fitting.

Wanted to write out a nice message and we almost always post things on social media first as that is how I pull the photos over to post up.

@nelsmar let me borrow an engine this weekend to finalize the intake manifold. We are waiting on the bellhorns to show up but everything bolts up and fits nicely. Seals to 60 psig.

Picture is above and here is one with a green fuel rail mounted on it.

Ugh . . . . Soo sexy

wootwoot · 05-11-2015, 07:31 PM

So you're telling me I can only run 60psi of boost? Fail!

Captain Snooze · 05-11-2015, 08:14 PM

What's that distant screaming I hear?

Oh, it's my wallet begging for mercy.

I keep on telling myself I don't need this but I don't appear to be listening.

Sorry if this has been said already somewhere but this thread is freaking long, toward the beginning you mentioned 2L plenum volume on each side, how does that compare to stock?

I'm a little worried because with the 76mm throttle body figure I'm finding, just a quick calculation says at the speed of sound, the throttle body flows 37L/s and 4L is quite significant.

I guess now I'm thinking hard about ITBs lol.

so nice...

Rough measurements of the OEM is 3.5-4L plenum volume IIRC.

OEM throttle body is 66-67mm, not 76mm.

That intake looks beautiful. But i guess for most potential performance gains might be of higher priority, as in even something ugly would do, IF it brings more ponies

, and vice versa, wonderful looking parts are nice in show cars, but if not backed with performance rise .. hence .. any dyno numbers?

Yes, we will get dyno numbers when all the components (currently waiting on bell horns) are here and then we will be dyno testing them on both FI and NA applications. We have no plans to pre-sell any without dyno backed performance and we will not mentioned any horsepower gains until we see them ourselves.

Could you make sure to provide tuned and untuned results please? Thanks.
