1. The rear two cylinders will get a lot of air since the throttle bodies literally open up to them.
2. The front two cylinders are going to starve for air based on what I could see.
3. The bridge design across the back acts as a balance tube. however, it is all squared off with hard 90* edges and lips. This will cause a vortex at the back of the manifold and as the air travels across the balance tube it will worsen as it hits incoming air from the other throttle body.

My fear with this intake is that you will over lean the rear to cylinders and the front two will starve for air relative to the rear two cylinders. I hope its not another kinetix intake manifold.

These are just my impressions from handling the units... it will be interesting to see the flow data.
From what you seen and I seen. I agree with what you said for N/A. Yeah the rear cylinders will be lean. But for FI. That manifold is pressurized. So I don't think the rear cylinders will be all that lean compared to the front. But, I maybe wrong. Will have to wait and see.

Do you have any testing results on the prototype? I'd assume you'd have that in hand before you started turning out production units.

Depending on how many $1000's I'd have to pay for the 5-10whp it would bring, this could be good. At least it already looks better than the OEM one lol

I got an updated ETA for late July earlier today when I talked with AAM. We will see as we all know how things can change. I'm really thinking of adding this to my build.

Honestly they probably made this thread after the first 3D drawing was created...
