Found this site while I was screwing off at work. I like the header alot. The intake is strange looking but gave me some idea's.

The intake looks like a fire extinguisher bottle with a TB flange and some runners. Hell I could make one of those tonight at my work. Well...maybe not the completely by myself. But none the less it looks like a simple design that is easily duplicated. Let me know what you guys think of both the header and the intake.

I'm still learning about welding and stuff, but they look nice, too bad its for a neon. The intake does look like a fire extinguisher. I don't think I'd want that on my car. Looks too screwed up. But if it worked well, I'd reconsider... function over form.

i have seen a number of different ideas along these lines and have some of my own. any pro's or con's to be expected from changing the the volume of air moving through the intake manifold? i.e. - making a custom intake manifold smaller or larger than stock. just a guess, but does smaller im=more torque? larger im=more hp? one other thought, would internal baffling or routing be needed to ensure proper flow to all cylinders, especially 3and4, even with equal length runners?
