550 Posted December 24, 2006 Report Share Posted December 24, 2006 Johann very nice. I have seen it done on miatas(BMW's too) with good results.. this should be very nice. I assume you are making that manifold yourself? Also are you just doing flutes pre throttle body? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johann Posted December 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2006 Johann very nice. I have seen it done on miatas(BMW's too) with good results.. this should be very nice. I assume you are making that manifold yourself? Also are you just doing flutes pre throttle body?The flutes.. You mean the Velocity stacks? Yes. For now I think they will be the 60 mm version but I didn't order them yet. depends a bit on the space left in front of the any and frankly I didn't measure anything yet.I think the engine will go in later this week. The manifold is home made on a CNC mill.3D drawing,The work,Still needs a few minor mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
