Ive thought about it and could do it VERY easily. But it does take a lot of time and Im not sure what people think something like thats worth. Im doing mine right now and with a core could do anyones really. Its just timely. Im going to do piping soon and even that takes a while. At least the IM doesnt need to be fit on a car for every one. I would do it if I think it would be worth it for the time. Just not sure what they are worth.

ericy if you end up getting good gains out of it. Just figure up how long it would take for you to recreate. muliply by 20-30 and tada, service fee.

like if it takes 5 hours? then make it $125 with a $75 core charge on the manifold.

Mine would still be a cut off and weld deal though with the option for a larger TB flange to be added or whatever you wanted really. Ill look into it again.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (tibby01 @ Apr 18 2008, 09:51 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>opposite dude. with long runners you get the scavageing effect. air hits the valves when they close, and creates a void that allows the following air to rush into the cylinder more quickly. with a pressurized intake charge it will get in there just as fast anyway.</div>

Something like this...


Short runners creates more pressure for N/A...
