Intake manifold build
#201
I just stumbled upon this thread and love it. Props to you Ryan for bringing a much wanted product to the Miata world. It seems as if I may be a customer in the future for my build. I will contact you via email or your website so we can discuss what my options and goals are with my '99 NB.
I was hoping to use ARTech for an intake manifold as I will be utilizing his exhaust manifold and dp but he has been so swamped with work his intake manifold developement has taken a back seat.
Anyway once again thanks for all your hard work.

There was a dyno comparison done by another member on here a couple of years ago, I'll see if I can dig it up, it may be buried in this thread somewhere. I can certainly tell you or you can ask anyone on here that has used one of my manifolds that it broadens your powerband dramatically, especially with larger turbos and cams.

I still have my shop in the bay area, but I'm in Texas most of the time these days. I've been setting up a new shop in the temple area and Ive been working on a piggyback flex fuel system that will work with stock or aftermarket systems. I'll start a thread about soon.

They are made to order. not one is the same as another. This one also is using a stock 1.6 throttle body. I believe this is the first one I've done with a throttle body the same size as one velocity stack.

You can do a remote mounted idle valve. I use a 97 IAC that TurboTim made a block off plate for and have it mounted off to the side. I use it in a mustang throttle body. I will try to snap some pictures later today.

If you could give me the part number for that I am valve that would be great I would love to recommend them. Most people don't use anything because they are usually on a track only race car that doesn't have any accessories. But for a street car that could be handy.

Sorry I have not gotten pictures yet. Has been raining out the past few days and that car is not in the garage. Hopefully I get a sunny day soon and can snap pictures.
I believe that it is just a stock 97 IAC that was unbolted from the throttle body.
