interesting design, will be interesting to see what kinda numbers your setup will put down.. can we get any hints as to what your setup actually is going to be now? Is the the same as what o2civicfp (sp) is using?

It's not a cheap part to make. I will let Gery answer the questions. I have quite a few more parts on order...no, my setup is going to be quite different than his. I won't give any hints away but I should have all of my new parts in hand by end of the week. I'll post pics as they arrive.

Rep Power: 297 Andy got the only one that I will be making for anyone else. I am going to make one for myself and call it quits. I have too much work on my plate already. I cant charge a justifiable price for one here and there, and I dont really want the responsibility of dealing with a group buy and a vendor account at the moment. It may not look like much but a lot of time has gone into getting a design that works descent. I have frigged around with a bunch of IMs and this is what I have decided to run on my car.
I got a few tricks up my sleeve this year as well. Boilermaker saw my shortblock and he has a vague idea of what I am running. I doubt Ill push it as hard as I can but Ill find out what the drivetrain can hold and turn it back a notch.

intake manifold - The network of passages that direct air or air-fuel mixture from the throttle body to the intake ports in the cylinder head. The flow typically proceeds from the throttle body into a chamber called the plenum, which in turn feeds individual tubes, called runners, leading to each intake port. Engine breathing is enhanced if the intake manifold is configured to optimize the pressure pulses in the intake system.

So it seems I have got a lot to learn about my car.
