* SOHO Motorsports VHR Intake Manifold Group Buy *
 
What up guys!

It has been a while since I have been on here, however Spooler contacted us in regards to our intake manifold and brought up the idea of doing a group buy for our intake manifold.

Many have probably seen our cast intake manifold that we currently run on 3 cars at the moment including the Nismo :)

The main reason we set out to build this manifold is that the OEM plastic manifold will have a limitation to where it will either leak or crack under increased boost pressures. Those boost pressures may be 15 psi or 20 psi, either way plastic can only sustain a certain amount of boost before it fails.

Below you will see the intake manifold that we designed, which is very similar to the OEM look, with the following changes:

- We have removed the waffle design on the top side
- Increased the volume of the inside of the manifold by 10%
- Designed to withstand 100+psi

The big thing with this manifold that we saw when compared to the stock manifold was there were very minimal gains/ loses in regards to power.

Below you will see a twin turbo built motor 370z performing a run on the stock manifold in the blue line and a run on the SOHO manifold in the red line.

Boost remains very similar to the stock intake manifold and you can see the power and torque difference is similar as well. There is a slight increase in boost on the top end resulting in a very minimal loss in power, which could relate to this engine not liking the timing at that boost level.

On the other side you see that there is a slight increase in boost on the bottom end resulting in an increase in power and torque down low.

The test was conducted on the same vehicle, same dyno, and no change in the tune so that we could compare apples to apples and not apples to oranges.

Below is also a video that I did discussing the intake manifold.

We are now offering a GROUP BUY for this Manifold which we can give a BIG THANK YOU to Spooler.

Price: $2499.99 and it will include FREE shipping anywhere in the USA

If you are interested, please provide your name and i will update the list below as we will need a minimum of 10 people to get this pricing

I am first dude.

Spooler 01-13-2021 07:27 PM

I just got the word out. Give it a little while.

Wuero370z 01-13-2021 07:37 PM

I’m in! Anyway I could get free shipping on some 1400hp axles as well?

Someone needs a shipping quote since they are in Canada.

Do we have any idea if we can port these and possibly get some power gain?

Maybe, the stock intake is really good. We won't loose anything with this intake, that is for sure. AAM was a 50hp loss. I remember hearing that somewhere. May have been from you. LOL

Spooler 01-16-2021 01:29 PM

I am out of folks I know. Some of you guys may want to reach out to your boosted friends. We have 2 more slots to fill.

OMGWTFBBQ 01-16-2021 03:24 PM

Probably a little too late for this since the production piece is already made, but thoughts about making the inlet of the intake manifold where it meets to the throttle body larger to fit a 75mm 2009-2014 Nissan Maxima throttle body so boosted guys can have a 75mm (3 inch) going all the way from the intercooler through the intake pipe through the Maxima throttle body all the way into the intake manifold?

Maybe I'm just talking nonsense.

It would a pointless mod. You won’t gain anything from it.

How many of y’all would be down for a group tune from Seb, I’m trying to get folks together to fly him down to Florida.

Only JC is in our area. The rest of the folks are all over the place.

Doesn’t hurt to see if folks are willing to make the drive or have the car shipped.

I've been trying to do some more research into this.

It makes sense that it should increase throttle response and bring boost in earlier, even if there are no real peaks gains to be had. That said, there are 3 TB kits out there and they've all had the same issues(crazy cold starts, rev hang, idle surge), and too many reports of those issues for me to make that jump.


Also, I think we added #9 to the list. @kingsilvia on IG, not sure if he's a forum member or not.

It’s not going to bring boost in earlier. You want to increase turbo response, increase displacement, move to a smaller turbo, Tuning will take care of throttle response.

The only reason I would go to a larger throttle body is if they were the reason for a restriction and changing them out would correct that issue. It can be measured via a boost gauge before and after the throttle body. I just don't see a need in doing so at this time. I have a few other restriction issues that would need to be fixed first.

The only real benefit is that it is added insurance of a manifold failure as the waffle is pretty dang efficient up to a point. My only real reason for jumping in is because I have the funds to do it and I try and over build everything. Why....because racecar!!!:driving:

Spooler 01-18-2021 09:46 PM

The problem comes when you need it and don't have it. You will pay a premium to get it. Unless you pick it up now with everybody else.

Irishrogue 01-19-2021 01:37 AM

If the IG guy falls through, I'll take the 10th spot.

Just say the word; as I’m sure the cutoff isn’t 10, that’s just the minimum :tup:
