So how many are you all at now?

 

[Preloader]

4 I believe.

 

[slitzell]

Yes there are 4 of us with the teslticular fortitude to get the manifold so far

 

[sonic24740]

I would like to go in on it. But I really want an exhaust first..

 

[slitzell]

You can get an exhaust anytime....

 

[TurboTechRacing]

Well I think we count 4... Half there...

 

[slitzell]

Yea 4so far. Cmon people!

Who's next?

 

[Stratton_Chevrolet_Sonic]

I am interested. It would look really nice but I would need flow testing numbers and dyno numbers before buying one.. Ive seen and heard of many cases of fabbed sheetmetal intake manifolds actually making less power than a factory or factory style ported intake. Good example would be EVOs

 

[slitzell]

we will never know unless we get 4 more! stratton we need you!

 

[rdss]

I think Stratton want's more info before paying for R&D.

Exactly. Im sure it will be a very nice peice but Ive seen too many times that a factory manifold will make more power than a sheetmetal one unless its on a HIGH hp race engine. The sonic powerplant is no where near that power level yet. Not saying it wouldnt make more power with the fabbed intake but I would like to see real results before investing.

I hear ya man. It would be disappointing to pay 600 for no gains lol

 

[TurboTechRacing]

Gains typically are about 10-15 hp over 4000 rpm. No magical part will give you 50 hp, not a bolt on part. So be realistic on your expectations.

If you are interested, speak up. If not, don't reck it for others that do want it; be best to stay out, as you are not interested.

One day we will make a part you do want, you won't want others to prevent you from getting what you want.

Keep in mind stock is plastic, weak on high boost as it is designed for a stock 140 hp setup.

Thank you Aaron, for reading my mind.
