I went and done did it again.....yup, built another intake manifold. This one is for my car which who knows when will be done, but it should be fairly fast I'm thinking. I've had it done for a while now, just finally got around to polishing it up some the other day so it'd be picture worthy.

General specs on the mani are that it's around 6L of volume, has over-stretched velocity stacks (fingers were crossed on each one as I made them), and you can see a mixture of my traditional roundness design with a new little twist worked into it. TB flange is for a nice particular ;) 90mm unit when I get around to finding a good steal on one.

I'm working on my Talon still, building it back up. It's extremely hard on the budget I have right now so unfortunately I see the expensive things holding me back from finishing it until next year most likely. --this is without using the ol' credit card of course. Expensive stuff consists of: turbo, good clutch/flywheel setup, cams and valves, parts for exhaust header and exhaust, wastegate, all new suspension, redone cage, and other little crap. All of those are looking to end up totalling in the $4,000-$6,000 range for the right pieces which I'm looking at. In the meantime I'll be pulling a Nate and riding my dirtbike more. Look for pics of an Evo hitch I'll be making soon. ;)

Brent, I want to rent your wheels for the summer and buy your tires. let me know if your interested since most likely your not going to be able to use them all summer. Done want those tires to be hard and dryied out by the time you can race on them! 8)

Definitely interested, but you might be fighting it out with someone else that wants them too. I can tell you more if you ever call me back. ;)

That intake mani looks sex. Put up a pick when you have it in the engine bay.

Brent can you please demonstrate to me via calculations, technical jargen, and pretty graphs why you manifold is better than magnus' or bushur's? :wink:

I use a more performance-oriented polishing compound than Buschurs, and mine's not made in Canada unlike Magnus's ;)

Most likely, but I'll probably need your car to do so. It would be done at my new work so you'd have to set up an appointment and drop off the car.
