Lightbulb just a PROTOTYPE {VQ35turbo manifold}

Just looking for some feedback on my latest project, It's an intake manifold that was developed strictly for turbo applications, and is currently in testing............... so far the dyno charts are looking good.

I can't visualize how that will fit on the car.

it fits rather well, the throttle body is positioned to the side (driver), as opposed to hooking around the back of the engine compartment. everything you need, and nothing you dont.

Looking good. I can't wait to see the numbers. Strut bar people won't be happy. Plus you will have to modify piping for the FI kit. Any inside pics?

I have this one, it's not really an inside view, but i can assure you we've done extensive research in the development of this product. we plan to offer the intake tube specific to various kits at no additional cost. Right now were running it on a JWT.

dont be scared of the crude look, the manifold pictured has no asthetics, and is for test purposes only. the finished project will be as beautiful as it is funcional.

Is it just me or the engine bay looks really messy?

looks good, but I'm sure your runner length must be pretty short........great if someone needs a manifold for higher rpm potential....

Same basic design as the one-off one by K&N. Should be nice!

Looks promising. But please, after this intake is finalised begin designing a bent strut bar that goes around the back of the engine.

Always nice to see someone trying out new things!

I like it so far, but have you considered making a manifold that feeds into the front? I really liked Top Secret's manifold design and I'd love to have something similar to it even if it meant altering piping.
