Your design helped make this, so I thought I'd return the favor.

After seeing your exhaust manifold work I am really looking forward to seeing this intake manifold build. Do you have a time line for it?

Talking to me?


I have a dyno coming to my shop for a day on May 1. So i NEED to have the car done by then!


basically all i need is intake manifold, charge piping and a downpipe to do though. as well as wiring the new sensors into the AEM for the VVT swap.


I am also having the tuner do my S14 with s14SR, power FC and n60 maf... new daily... which im hoping to make ~260-270 out of.

Cool! I hope to be done it in ~3 weeks to give time to do the rest of the build as well as prepping the s14.

No work on the miata this weekend, but I did make a mid pipe for a Toyota soarer with a 1jz.

I have the week off, so im going to get some stainless for my intercooler mount that will double as a splitter and ducting mount (wait for pure ballerness) as well as some wire so i can do the VVT wiring into the AEM box.

-New flanges will be in for the downpipe and screamer pipe so i can finish those off Thursday.
-Intercooler piping should be in later this week, i will be able to complete the hot pipe for now.
-Ross parts and head flange have cleared customs and i hope are in for this week so i can get a solid start on that.


Super Excite!!!
