Just to let you know... Stock intake plenum is 1.450cc, mine is almost 1.900cc all the welding is done, just need to do a leak test.

A lot tape used to find out the capacity of the plenum...

impressive work fing02.gif

the only thing I would've changedwas to use a single formed piece of aluminum as a cover piece rather than angle but as long as you get good penetration on your welds you shouldn't have a problem.
