That will be an easy addition. I want to get the base version perfected first and then I’m going to start incorporating options like the larger TB’s, carbon fiber plenums, meth injection, different colors/finishes, etc.

I was skeptical but holy man does that look cool! Good job! Will be really neat when the4y can be painted and fabbed up even more! Love your approach man, good job!

Pic update!

Got the final version printed, painted, and put together.
Was experimenting with a few different post processing methods so the finish has some flaws. Don't judge that too critically.

Going to be getting it on the car and then onto the dyno to see if this thing performs as good as it looks ASAP.

Have some meeting over the next week with various manufacturers so that I'll be able to get the official pricing and timeframe of when these will be available for purchase.


Feedback is welcome so what do ya'll think?

No matter how nice it look. It does look nice. The dyno will be the final say-so.

Agreed. According to the bench testing, it has larger volume, better flow and much less interference to keep the air temp down so I am expecting decent gains but thats all theory until there's numbers to back it up. Expecting better gains on FI setups but we will see soon.

I'm guilty for wanting it only for the sake of aesthetic as long as there's no functional downside.

It looks great. One question for me at least, will it out perform the oem level at the same psi. ( forced induction).

ANMVQ 08-09-2018 02:47 PM

Damn man looks awesome, really hope we see something on a N/A car. I'd loved to have this under the hood, No more engine cover!!

From a mathematical and design standpoint, it has greater volume and better flow so I am expecting it to make a bigger difference on FI setups than NA setups but we will see when I get it on the dyno this month.

Subbd for results!

andy_meng1024 08-14-2018 03:25 PM

Wow this looks awesome. If the result is good I'm in for a few.

I volunteer to be a control subject with my new build, this might help me get that 700 on pump I'm looking for combined with C2's and 10:1.
