The castings, I was told I would have last Friday, did not turn out. Corky said something about the metal was too cold when poured, so they have to redo it. I will get an updated ETA from him.

You guys need to stop screwing around and invest in your own in house foundry. Seriously.

 

The Foundry just said they are pouring new ones today.

In the time its taken to do this, I have gone through 2 miatas, blown two built engines and am in the process of parting out my msm and buying another NA....

 

sweet

 

Look what showed up last week!

The new manifold is almost build and ready for in house testing. In building the new manifold we have determined that the castings will work well and make it significantly faster to produce than a sheet metal manifold. So, more castings have been ordered!

Look like some kind of larvae, interested to see finished product.

 

Any pricing info yet?

 

Will know more later this week, once I have the final time to fabricate it.

reminds me of this lol

 

looky here:

 

I just had a brilliant idea

connect the plenum to the runners underneath and add a set of butterfly valves that....

nevermind.

 

ETA on dyno data?

 

you're onto something. long runners for mid-range and the butterflys open at 6-7k. Like the GSR manifold.

 

I think he's talking about the NB VICS intake manifold. Lol..

 

It's almost been a week.

Any news?

 

In a thread that's over 3 years old you're worried about not getting an update in the last week?

 

 

You must be new to Begi.

 

nah, that doesn't use different main runners. it just leverages helmholz resonance.

unless you've done the "mod"...
