Red bit = Brake master cylinder and pipeage
Blue bit = Clutch master cylinder
Grey bit = Enginey stuff (measured from top of intake manifold face on head)

I've got a vacuum box that will handle that and the MAP sensor routing. On the ITB cars there will be a barb plumbed into the bottom of each port, and on the non ITB cars it will more then likely be plumbed into the throttle body adapter plate, though I haven't drawn those adapter plates yet so we'll see.
We need to get to looking at it from an engine management perspective to as you can't run a MAP vs RPM table with ITBs. You have to run MAP X TPS vs RPM. The Adaptronic is capable, but I'm not sure about the MS, Hydra, AEM, Xede or anything else.

I'm subscribing to see if you offer 1.6 IRTB version (building a high-comp 1.7L all-motor engine).
Currently have the Fuji IRTBs and might be willing to make the change to these very nicely thought out ITB manifold/setups!

..... I got the NB intake cam gear designed... Does that count?
Seriously, I missed my price point, so i redesigned the flange, and we're in the process of another build. The carbon part didn't change, but its still under development.

CF actually makes it cheaper to get the perfect design for incredible flow numbers, and I got it figured out. We're back in the game on this. It was the flange that got expensive, the 4rth axis stuff can just kill your intended price if you are not careful.

Really, what has kept us from going forward on this is the cam gears and the ignition system. Once you see those get out of the way, this comes together really fast.

If I made it in aluminum it would be 5-10 times as heavy, prone to cracking at the welds, and I couldn't hold the tolerence between production runs to .002 inches. You could also never get the same shape I made with aluminum. It would cost 1000's upon 1000's of dollars per a unit. You will be amazed when you see this thing. The clouds will split open, and angels will cry.
