^^^ Great!
A few more important details: Before anything gets fabbed - Diameter of the intake tube must match OEM otherwise tuning will absolutely be required; same for location and orientation of the MAF sensors. They're CNC'ing everything, so that shouldn't be hard to do (and they probably already know this... but never hurts to make sure). After the prototype is made -- You will probably need to do 3 pulls for each run to see changes -- the ECU doesn't adjust immediately (true, even with tuning). There are other transient modifiers that take a few runs to "self-adjust". Also, be sure to keep oil temps right around 200* F, not too much cooler or hotter, and do all runs in same gear (either 4th or 5th is fine). I'm hoping you guys can find a dynojet, but really any dyno will do so long as baseline and Swift intake runs are done under same conditions. If you can do it on a dynojet, please send me the drf's (actual datafiles) to jlitman@mail.usf.edu when you do the runs. I'll make detailed comparison graphs and post them. Also, if you can get pics as the build of the prototype comes together that would be awesome! I can post those too if you like
