Yea I will be building that in. I just hope they don't pop the hood at the emissions center. A big chunk of shiny carbon fiber probably isn't going to cut it for emissions. I appreciate the offer WRC, when I get there I'll send you an email.

Intake manifold without independent throttles $619
Intake manifold with AE series throttle support and you buy your own throttles. $619
Intake manifold with Boundary Engineering Oval Throttles $759
All Carbon fiber plenums good to 400*F and 3 Bar
1 can be upgraded to 3 with the purchase of another flange with throttles.
We will only be making 2 molds for these. One for the 94-97 and one for the 99-up. Options 1 and 3 use the same plenum. Option 2 uses a different plenum.
Vote now, and tell me what you want. In 5 weeks they'll be here for the 94-97 and 99-up.

Travis, maybe you can clarify some things for me or you can tell me to just be patient and wait for pictures.
Will the BE manifold with oval throttles be enclosed and lead to a single throttle or will it be enclosed with multiple throttles?
If it's ITB's, what brand would you be using?
I'm really looking forward to seeing more pictures to get a better idea of what to expect.

I've seen the 3d image on your website, and I think the image in my head is gonna be different than the final product. I pictured an enclosed carbon manifold leading to a single opening for a throttle body mount. I think i'm kind of stupid. I imagined bolting my throttle body to carbon fiber.

Travis: Still on track for the 5 week mark for these? And any update on the Timing Kits?

This was covered earlier in the thread. The BE throttle butterflies are built into the base of each runner. If you look at the base you'll see the throttle plate shaft sticking out. At least that's what I understood?

We are on track for 5 weeks so far. Timing kits are being tested. I'm willing to sell engineering samples at 300 for the whole kit. I have one set of engineering samples left.

I'm expecting flashy carbon by the end of next week.
What Throttle Body bolt pattern are you making for this? Will it only fit a stock throttle body or are you making it for something larger, like a 70mm mustang TB?
Just to clarify here when I mean silicoln clamp on I mean your going to have a material interface between the manifold and the adapter. Then a silicoln clamp air seals the joint and keeps everything rigid. Its not like a limp noodle throttle mount.

That part is easy, its built right into the flange. You'll love how its setup once you see it. The butterfly is as close to the head as possible and it actually hangs into the port when open. I suspect the non-ITB version will be available first though, it is the easiest.

I don't know, you'll have to give it a spin to see. I would not think you would run into problems though the plenum is not huge and its not that close to the firewall. If the stock manifold fits over there this will too.

So Travis,
Do you have an estimated completion time for the ITB kits to be available?
