N/A dyno numbers KINETIX intake manifold
What are the flow rates between the individual runners?
The stock one does not distribute air evenly between the cylinders so I think its important that a replacement manifold prove that it can.

I volunteer to track test it AND dyno test it. I will only send it back if it doesnt make over 8+ whp (that is all I would want out of it). If it makes 8whp or more, I will gladly keep it, and not expect money from you for dyno testing. But if it fails, I would like the option of having my $$$ back-either way Ill pay for the dyno. Also, my a/f right now is perfect 13.1-we can see on my car where, and if it leans me out. I will even re-flash my ecu back into tune with this on. Sound fair ??

Ron....got my order in for the new manifold! Can't wait man. That thing is sooooo pretty under your hood! You guys gotta see this thing in person! Ron.....thanks for taking care of things at the pad while I was gone. Car pulls like a ***** with the limited flash. Was that supposed to happen?

Go ahead and buy one, you know you want to!

they way im seeing it is its running in at 1 bar/ abient air pressure, not in a FI application where it would be getting forced in. all the cylinders would be sucking in air but the cylindedrs in front of IM get it the easiest due to there proximity.
think of it like this. if the surge tank is to big it would be harder for the engine to create enough force to suck in air.
for example take a straw and try to suck out of a huge bag. then take the straw and suck out of a sandwich bag, its much easier out of the sandwich bag.
i dont know if you understand that but i HIGHLY doubt that this would even happen i just need to read up on IM's/ plenums more to understand them better
