Helloz,

Browsing the web came across Infinite Machine Concepts and they have one of the best intakes I've seen for the VG30 with a matching top feed fuel rail.

Some days before seen a few pics with some Z32 with either this intake or similar installed. Waiting on a reply from IMC about this product; ytube did not yield any results as far as someone either on a dyno, on the street or track with this setup.

Anyone care to share experience dealing with this company and products, specially this item in particular?
Im down for a group buy; however, the picture of the intake is on a non-running Z32, that makes me skeptical.

Whats the point behind the concept? The factory VG30 intake manifold is an work of engineering genius and art. A manifold like that is likely only good for WOT operation, you'll almost definitely loose bottom end torque.

Good point.
Reading the story behind the stock intake, its definitively a piece of work. Did some more digging and IMC has been selling these since 2016, mostly overseas.

Hopping someone that has this combo could chime in, and show some figures video or at least share some info.

If it turns out a full race setup is needed to use this intake, ie huge turbos, over 1000cc injectors, etc, etc at least the info is out there for those looking to make a track killer.
