GT-R intake manifold conversion progress?

Hmm, interesting. What benefits would this have over OEM? Will this increase the volume the manifold can hold (ala plenum spacer for 350Z DE motor)? Also, should we expect to

I would really think if there were gains to be had, Motordyne would have likely gotten them.

That's what I think too. Our manifolds seem to be already pretty damn good...

yes they do... I don't know that for NA Z's there is much more power to be gained. Perhaps eventually with some cams and tuning, but even then we're probably only talking 20 or so HP. Don't get me wrong.. if I had a car capable of running a 12.5, i'm perfectly ok with that ... I don't go to the strip, nor do I really care to... I just wanted the same sort of pep my old Evo X had.
