Custom 3D Printed GTR Style Intake Plenum Project

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

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.

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.
