New update: Been working on an intake manifold for the last two days...just experimenting and stuff. I'm not sure if it's gonna work good or not, but whatever...I've been guinea-pigging for too long to even care about the wasted money so I'm going crazy and reckless with it, LOL. laugh.gif

It's cool how everything starts with a bare aluminum pipe. smile.gif


I'm installing ARP head studs tomorrow for extra safety and hopefully break-in the engine this week to take it to the dyno. A few pics, since I never provide visual stuff. smile.gif

The weapon.


Bye-bye, EGR.


Welding the pipe to the stock manifold.




Not aiming for prettiness.


My hands are too small for belonging to a male...I know. tongue.gif


A teaser. biggrin.gif


When it's properly polished, it'll look awesome. We had to fabricate a piece to be able to secure the transmission cable to the throttle body. The engineering was tricky but we achieved it.

More later. wink.gif
