Wow what a difference. This thing is sik as ***. Its unbelievable. I really really need to get the thing over to the dyno. I have marcelo meeting us tonight around 9 to 930. The car brakes'm loose even with the traction control on and the intake is now louder than the exhaust. I will post pics of it in the car. I cant believe I made this **** all myself. just sik hahahahaha thanks mike

I went for a ride, it's very torqy and especially at the top end. It pulls hard. I think we'll see a very good result when it get on the dyno. I was impressed. Great work Mike, and the powder coat came out great.

I wonder what kind of a monster plenum you can make for an FX35

I agree about the diamond plate, shoulda smoothed that out... but if you like it then so be it. It IS unique though! Ridiculous work in getting it to fit... are you planning on slightly angling the front portion to fit w/out all the extensive modifying you did?

The crazy thing is that i think the crazy results are from 3 things. I the sheer volum of the top is crazy big, 2 the port match (way better than stock) and 3 the decking of both upper and lower runners. Its hard for me to say that if I just made the top a little lower the results would be the same. I think the porting made a huge difference. Other wise all u'd have to do is get the tall boy plenum and people would be giving reports like I'm giving which is unheard of. Ive already got requests flying hahaha this is too crazy I'm glad it worked out and believe me guys next time no diamond plate later mike

Congrats sounds sick from what I read. But which of the two are you using as the lower plenum the MRev or the RevUp?
