This. I really want to keep the valve covers from leaking. I feel like allowing the engine to build crankcase vac would affect the valve cover seal, too. No?

I'll start another thread and do a write up.

If anyone has some valve covers laying around they could take pics of it would really help.

Really impressive set up, I don't know if anyone knows that the Amuse 350z has similar set up, here is the link you can see the Amuse Powerhouse 350z mod list. http://www.*********.com/zwiki/Amuse_350ZThis also my dream setup for NA of course, but it is expensive with those nismo spec 2 cam and heads. Luckily we do have other US tuners like to challenge NA setup and push it to the limit, this is very impressive. Keep up the good work. Now I can hurry up and get the set up down.

I would love to see a 90MM elbow and TB fitted onto a SSIM FWD manifold. Seems like it would be a pretty easy job if you have the ECU capability to use a 90MM TB.

It'll be on the motor we're building for our 200SX SE-R VQ swap.

SGSash, did you happen to get any measurements of the original plenum volume and new plenum volume after the changes? Or if you don't want to give out specific info, was there a %age of engine size that you were shooting for? I'm in the middle of a FWD sheet metal intake project and any info would be helpful.

That comment reminded me of the old Champ cars... Most violent cars I've ever seen in person (dragsters not included). No dis-respect, but nah...

However, you have my vote on sounding like a propper race car.
