Look at this VQ35DE intake manifold by B-Line http://www.blinemotorsports.com/home.html
Does anyone know any information on this.

 

Never seen that before. Interesting.

 

Looks like ITB's

 

Different...

 

The design looks like *** and looks non functional in my opinion. That thing is huge, i mean even look at that throttle body? Why???

The only thing it looks good for is to toss salad in it(don't be sick) or for a serious FI setup. Otherwise it seems ridiculous to me.

 

I just got off the phone with B-Line and the picture on the site is and old picture they say that now its even bigger the velocity stacks come of the bottom about three inches. So the tips of them are like floating around in the center of that huge space. Their whole idea is to atleast have double the litters of air than of the motor(3.5) in the manifold. Stock is about 4 litters of air and theirs hold's close to 7.5 litters. The one pictured (old prototype) put close to 20 whp and close to 18 wtq. They will not produce the manifold unless it produce 25 to 30 whp N/A. Their production model due early next year (Jan) will include a phenolic spacer between the lower part of the stock manifold the part with the injectors to this monster reducing the heat transfer. It will also come with a new coolant line to bypass the thottle body completely not just a fiting to conect the two stock ones. They are designing a new lid so that there isn't as many holes and bolts. Its is being designed for N/A but they said that it will do even better on F/I. Oh and the stock strut bar FITS.

I hope this helps. I know that I'll be waiting for this one.

 

holy jamolies, that thing is gonna cost like a grand at the minimum. if it's really 25-30 whp over stock i might buy it though...

 

So what...Are they ITB's or just a manifold? I don't understand why there are velocity stacks in each of the runners in the manifold? Am i even correct?

So a humungo plenum/manifold and 130mm throttle body increases NA 20 horses ? This should be interesting.

 

That thing is freakin huge!

 

Where did ITB's come from??????

The thing is a plenum with velocity stacks in it.

The throttle body was connected in the pic.

 

Thats HOT!
