My car will never see more than 15psi because that's over 800rwhp. This car needs no more than that. Plus I have someone reinforcing it with carbon fiber to help it perform better.

It's a great plenum, we just thought we would be running more boost to reach the power levels we would need at the track. Since we aren't, we can use the stock plenum but I am re-inforcing it anyway.
This thing cost me a lot of damn money to have designed and then one-offed. It sucks to let it go but what am I going to do with it? Let it sit here? Hell, it's been sitting at the shop for a year even though I knew I didn't need it. I just didn't sell it because I thought it may be a backup in the event I pop the plastic one or decided to run more boost. That's why even though I am selling it, I am still having the factory one reinfored with carbon fiber. It's not so much the poping of it that I am concerned about, its the flexing of it which changes the flow to the runners that I am concerned with. This is probably why at even 15lbs, it seemed more of a pain to tune.
It makes you wonder why no one is making the kind of power levels I am on the HR. It's not because people aren't doing big enough builds because I have seen builds very similar. So why are they struggling to make the same or more power? I think the plenum is a major contributing factor.
If I was running more boost, the factory intake would be worthless. If I was still NA, I would definately not be selling it since you need every little bit you can get out of that motor.
I have spent the entire weekend tying up loose ends on the car and I am still not done...... but is it ever done? lol
To advance auto I go.....again......
Let me know, it's ready to ship at any moment!
