Re: Who wants a JDMFabtech Intake Mani? Steve and I do! - Serious Interest Only
I know Clint wanted some pictures so I snapped a few with my phone. All of the parts will be finished tomorrow if everything goes according to plan, hehe. The plenum inlets didnt photograph very well but there is a nice radius on them. In the pic it almost looks as if it has a chamfered edge. The last pic is of the cnc cutting in the o-ring grooves. I'll take some more pictures with a good camera once I get everything all cleaned up prior to fitment.

Gerry....what is functionally different between this one and mine? I know you're trying to make it fit better and easier to make, but what else is going on inside it?
PS.... i did some more work on george's manifold. I'll send you some pics and measurements.
Re: Who wants a JDMFabtech Intake Mani? Steve and I do! - Serious Interest Only
It's made with extra JDM Justin. Gerry is wearing a Mugen hat and t-shirt when he makes them so it has the power of JDM transferred to it during the fab. Don't argue, it's magic.
Thanks for the pics Gerry!!

There's a good chance that I'm not going to answer your PM.

Well Justin, Its not really changing that much. The radius inside the plenum is the same as the velocity stacks I used in your manifold. We made this piece out of 1/2" and machined some of the middle out for lightening. It makes for much less welding and easier fitment. I also moved the runner inlets off the horizontal centerline to make for a little better hood clearance and hopefully better clearance with the a/c, p/s hoses. Its dropping down to about 1/2" higher than factory instead of almost 2". The velocity stacks I used on your manifold wouldnt allow me to do that before. I actually think with the way the air enters the plenum, moving them up in the plenum may be beneficial but I dont really think there will be much difference though.

Got Clint's manifold a good part of the way done tonight. I'll have the two topmounts all set by the weekend, the N/A manifold will be the first of next week.
