Intake Manifold

I'll probably start fitments on saturday.

 

looks very nice! I have not had time to fit mine and work out a cold pipe solution yet. Looks like you had to do very minimal grinding on yours. Gen2 I assume?

 

yes, gen 2. I have a cold pipe setup that I think will work fine. it's the hot pipe I'll be working on since I don't feel like going under. here's an outside pic. the color is great. it's gonna have to sit for a few days though. the clear is still soft.

Looks goregous. When I order mine I would love to to possibly do a color scheme with the honeycomb raised parts a different color than the manifold. Or even just inside of the honeycomb sections.

 

hows fitment going @Faeker

 

updates?

 

haven't had time. been working on my deck and working a lot. I'm going to try and get to it by thursday.

 

So "By Thursday" is the new "Two weeks"?

 

he didnt specify which thursday, it could be infinity weeks

 

Or until our sun goes supernova o.0

 

Any news on this @Faeker ? Im wondering if you guys had an ideas of what we can do when we cant clock our turbo (running a corksport turbo) and cant do the under piping. (btw, its nice to be able to ask a question and not worry about getting flamed)

 

Sounds like you'll be needing one of those eBay 2.5" piping assortments and various silicone coupler bend assortments to customize something. Cut piping to appropriate size/shape to get it where you need it, then use a bead-roller or welder to make the charge piping pieces have a ridge to clamp behind/avoid boost leaks and/or pipes popping off under boost.

 

I honestly havent had any time to do much with my car. it's been sitting while I fix other people's cars and take care of life shit. if I get to it before it shows I'll post up.

 

Gotcha gotcha. I'll do the ebay thing, find a bead roller and get the boys over so we can figure something out. I'll post pics when I'm finally done. The blue looks sick btw. I might have to do green >:3

 

Where'd you get that avatar, anyways? You're going to get me in trouble with my wife if she's shoulder surfing one day. She's going to get the wrong idea of why I'm on the forum (which is hilarious, because she's gorgeous!). It's happened before, though, and I'm like, "Babe, you know how guys are, especially when they congregate and are talking about guy-stuff. Content like that pops up, LOL."

 

So it took me 2 weeks after getting it but i have been able to make this work with my 3.5" ets tmic and md meth. The throttle responce is good. I dont have any logs since my spot had construction. There are 2 seasons in ny. Winter and under construction so yea. 1:2 blend e85 and 93 oct with 100% meth so i cant comment on knock ect... but it works!! Short of full bolt on i had to drill 1 hole in a bracket. I have been to lazy and busy with new jobs to finalize it with non ghetto hf bead rolled pipe. This mani is a bitch with the cold pipe coming from the dr side. it is perfect for a cold pipe run from the pass side. Would work well with blow thru since it has long runs before the tb.

 

How did you get it to work with TMIC? Pics?

 

I have a few i didnt take a lot when i was putting it in. i spent a lot of time under the car thinking.

 

So you shifted the whole thing forward... How does the ducting like that?
