Actualy its an old DOMESTIC trick used for years. The Import guys always follow what works. There is no better path into the motor than a straight shot. We will be using minimal bends coming out of the intercoolers straight to the TB's. From there the air has a straight shot into the heads..We may incorperate velocity stacks in the future, however the way were porting the runners and lower intake plenum it will have a velocity stack effect. There is years of experience and knowledge going into this manifold..

No one will pay the money we would have to charge for this mod, trust me..We are at over 30 hours in fabrication thus far on the first one.

Why don't you talk to Wilson manifolds? Keith Wilson already designed a sheet metal manifold for the VQ35.... I saw it on some car a while back.......

and if you don't know who Keith Wilson is............well, let's just say he is the best, and there is no arguement. Hell, if you run one of his manifolds on a Nascar restrictor plate track, you have to use a special restrictor plate, different from the usual ones due to the fact that you have a Wilson Manifold.
