CJ Motorsports VHR Intake Manifold

1slow370

Did i used to work there? Yes Did I design the manifold? part of it yes there were 2 other guys involved. Does Sam line my pockets? No I stopped working there last fall. I'm not biased in any of this if somebody wants one of the parts off my car they have to call Sam I'm not going into the success of that happening as enough has already been said there but no one else makes it just a fact. Are we really gonna go into dragging up the manifold **** again? You and I already talked about that a year and half and an entire thread ago when the word masterpiece came up, and came to a conclusion that we both have valid points and that you're manifold is targeted to a different compromise of 370z applications. I agree with you that the GTM manifold is not serviceable and is a lot more expensive due to different throttle locations, different fuel rails, different component locations, difficulty to manufacture, and the one you didn't point out, it runs right through the factory oil cap neck. WIll it hands down perform better than yours? Also a yes because you are still retaining the worse piece of the factory setup. have you seen the cfd on the factory lower when you transition it into an open upper bellmouth? it's dogshit. is it an utter PITA to design a working replacement for that piece that incorporates the convenience of the oem piece and allows you to hit a price point that will actually let a large number of people purchase the manifold? yes. Is one manifold black and the other white?

I am 200% sure your manifold will be more Successful, but the GTM Manifold was awesome for it's no holds barred all out focus on getting air into the heads. Frankly it was a ************ to assemble there are like 52 god damned bolts, 24 o-rings, 6 gaskets, a crap ton of hoses, extended wires, you have to pull the valve cover, and it takes about a day just to put it together, but it does make power.

Thanks for pointing it out that I worked there, don't know about the rest of the stuff but I never said i didn't work there hell a bunch of guys here know. I was never biased even when I worked there, I have plenty of time in this game and I call **** as I see it. I give you props for finally getting your own cnc's and building to the point you are at. It must be hard to run a business when your parts supply was coming from a friend of yours making it after work at the machine shop he worked at. As for your conflicts with Sam I know its a two way street between you two but I made no decisions or had any relation to anything that went on between you two or anything business chit at GT I advised Ron the engineer there on parts, pushed buttons, and towards the end of my term I put together as many customer cars as I could to get them out including the white dragon.

I have nothing against you and I didn't get all personal. I stated my educated opinion on facts about a hardly existent alternative you could have put up or shut up but instead your all in on personal defamation true or untrue. since this is gonna get cluttery you take your post down and ill take mine down and we go to pm's if you want to go at it all keyboard ninja style.

I'm back because I'm building a VQ40 TT 74 260z and soon I will have business being back on here. I bought another car deal.
