Intake Manifold?

[Kr0n1k]

I see a couple people on here that make parts (BRM Exhaust for instance). My question is, does anyone have any plans for an intake manifold? If not, any guide lines (dimensions etc.) for having one fabricated? Don't want to run high PSI, looking to gain power elsewhere.

I think someone in the KA forums mentioned that he was trying to build some if there was some interest for them.. You might want to look there.

We don't need no silly bolt-ons... we got boost!

Ivan, WD, and myself are all making our own...there's a few posts about it, forgive me for not wanting to type it again...have a search...

Boost Designs is also planning to sell one, I believe.

I have a racing style intake almost finished. Full billet and sheet metal welded fabrication. I should have all the machined parts back at the shop early next week where we will weld it all together. The project S13 will be up and running with its new forged slug motor tomorrow and by the time the intake is ready to be tested, the motor should be broken in and ready to be flogged on the dyno. I am expecting to do a stock v race intake shootout and possibly a cam swap and turbo swap dyno comparison also.

II am expecting to do a stock v race intake shootout and possibly a cam swap and turbo swap dyno comparison also.

So...in an NA application, with header, intake, exhaust, cams and tuning would you anticipate that the intake manifold would show a significant increase in power over the same set-up with a stock manifold or does the bottleneck exist elsewhere in the engine?

Would this be something that would be more bang for the buck on a forced induction setup?

BTW, if it looks anything like your exhaust manifold I'm prepared to be very impressed.

I also made one for the company KA-T drag car...i just need to take it to the buffing wheel to give it a shine and i will take pics for you guys....mine is also sheet metal...more to come

Alright, so a couple months down the road it sounds like I'll have quite a few choices. BTW Ivan, that drag Zenki is badass IMO.
