Custom Intake
flat_iv - July 15th, 2005 at 12:34 PM

What do you guys think about this custom intake? I am worried about loosing throttle response. Thought about this idea so I do not have to cut on my fire wall in my ghia. Would be made out of aluminum or stainless steel.

I got to ask this M8, but why ever would you think you would "loose" throttle response?????

Just thought because moving the throttle body away from the intake and sweeping the air in instead of a strait shot into the intake.

In this application, No.

If your revving it to 9000rpm and producing around 280kw perhaps a poofteenth that might possibly show up on a dyno!

Relax.

just flip the manifold around.....:o

If you flip the manifold around I would have to relocate the alternator to where the air conditioner is located. And one day I want to put air in the car.
