I put on 3/8 npt bung for a vac manifold, and one for the brake booster. You still use your factory hardware for everything else fuel rail, etc. These wont trip cels on piggyback systems.

Awesome.....That IM is a thing of beauty! PM'D....

The two topmounts are done. I'm just waiting on my parts from Honda to make sure everything is aligned properly before sending anything out. I used most of the stuff I had on hand when putting my car together so I didnt have enough hardware for final mockup. The stuff should be here tomorrow. I also have the plenum for the N/A manifold all put together so maybe tomorrow I will start fitting the runners together.

DAMN Gerry those look great!!!!!

Gerry.... tip before you send these out.... weld a 1/8 NPT fitting in next to the stock MAP sensor port so you can mount an AEM sensor (assuming people buying them are using a screw in high pressure MAP). Its an incredibly tight squeeze to get a 3/8 T fitting next to the throttle to mount both the map sensor and the Vac manifold.

gerry question on those manifolds. Do you make your own TB plates or do you have someone else mill them?

 
Rep Power: 277

Wow Gerry!

Those two top mounts look great! I can't wait to see that N/A Mani

Please don't do the 1/8" NPT in that location on mine! My GM 3-BAR is not a screw-in! If you do put one in, I'd put it somewhere close to the passenger side as there's more room over there to hang my GM sensor (which is where it is already).

All that being said Gerry, they look ****ing awesome!!!!

You guys can mount those 1/8 map sensors on your vaccuum manifolds. It doesnt effect the readings as long as you supply the vaccuum manifold with a 3/8 line. no sense jamming it all into one spot and making it hard on yourselves. I have yet to have a problem doing it that way.

Tfnaaf, right now I am working with a guy at night on these. We write the programs on cad/cam software. He helps me set up the machine and I am the dummy that stands around and feeds it. There is a lot to know with cnc machinery and I'm still learning the basics. I'm not fluent enough to trust myself with a $250k machine just yet, hehe. I am very hands-on so I still have control over everything that I do, quality is very important to me.

sweet gerry! thanks a million...cant wait to get it!

Good stuff on the MAP port Gerry. I've got mine running off my vac mani currently and am glad to know I don't have to change it around at all.

 
Rep Power: 283

those are pretty damn spiffy-lookiing...but i have to ask, what are the additional flanges for??

 
Rep Power: 275

if your talking about the ones that are sitting on the mani.. i think they are gaskets.. but i might be wrong.

 
Rep Power: 263

Can I use an upgraded map sensor w/ a piggyback like emanage?

 
Rep Power: 425

Its a plastic isolator to keep the IM from cooking.... its like a Hondata gasket on steroids.

 
Rep Power: 275

thats good to know boiler!! thanks for the info!

 
Rep Power: 298

Well my parts from honda arent coming till tomorrow On the plus side I got the n/a manifold all figured out and most of the way tacked together. I managed to get just the runner length I was looking for. The plenum volume has go to be pretty close to what I needed as well. I'm hoping the shape of it will be more effective of keeping the velocity up vs a y8 manifolds plenum, or even the previous n/a manifold I designed. I'll try to get some pictures up tomorrow.

 
Rep Power: 277

Sucks about the parts

but glad to hear the N/A mani is coming together well!

I can't wait to see some pics!!!!!!

 
Rep Power: 275

hey gerry, i'm i'm just curious but are u using some kinda of formula to figure these things out? just curious how u r going about it... not doubting ur skills nor do i want to know the formula was just curious if there was one... thanks!!! keep us all updated on the progress of everything!!!

 
Rep Power: 298

yes there are formulas out there if you dig deep enough. If only it were that simple though, hehe. There is much more to it then making things a specific size. Honestly, it would take probably 10 or more manifolds of different varieties to get every last bit out of a given setup, but we can get close on the first shot based on my previous experiences. Time will tell, hehe.

 
Rep Power: 275

LOL thats good to know... and i even understand what your saying!! hahaha

Are you putting serial numbers on these or some other identifiable marking Gerry? Just a thought, I think they're unique enough to warrant a little engraving pen action.

Hey Clint, yours should say, "I'M THE JUGGERNAUT, BITCH!!"

lol, gerry you can sign mine if you want.

Today's the day they ship!!!!!

 
Rep Power: 298

Clint, they won't ship till Monday, maybe Tuesday depending on whats open. Would you prefer fedex or usps? I'm just not going to have enough time today to get em boxed up and sent out.

 
Rep Power: 0

Ahh, no probs Gerry. USPS Priority is the best way for them to go. You'll get bent over by Fedex. Just ship them to my APO address listed in the PayPal payment.
