If I didn't just buy the 3.7 TL intake manifold/throttle body I'd be all over this as well.

wait, im confused didnt you just state that this was ridiculous and unfeasible.

Come on...we know this mod is going to be great but a difference of 1 full second 0-60? That'd be a ridiculous gain and totally unfeasible for such a mod. The AT does 0-60 in the upper 6 second range stock. If this manifold decreased the 0-60 time by 0.2 seconds, that'd be a great and noticeable gain. Obviously that would mean the 0-100 time would be quicker by more than 0.2 seconds, resulting in a much faster 1/4 mile time as well. You can't expect this to decrease the 0-60 time by a second though lol. That'd translate to easily over a second in the 1/4, which is equivalent to a 100+hp gain.

I said to decrease the 0-60 time 1 full second is completel unreasonable, yes. I also said that there's no question this manifold/TB setup is going to make great power.

I think this project is awesome and totally commend and thank Paul for being so innovative. If it weren't for Paul a lot of us would still be scratching our heads. My point is, to expect the magnitude of gains to reflect a drop in 1 full second of the 0-60 time is incorrect. I thought I was stating the obvious....

I'm sure Paul's intentions are not to impress us with a zero to sixty improvement. That's enough Bullshit in this thread...

I don't think it was his intention either. It's not BS, it's conversation. If you think I'm knocking Paul you're severely mistaken...

I don't think your knocking anyone. But you are filling this thread with things that are a bot off the subject. I'll clean this thread up later.

AKA-whale penis.

I love how semi OEM it looks Paul. Are you planning on leaving the welds as is or smoothing them down some? Just curious.

Would the stock coil pack cover still fit? It looks like it would only fit with the MDX spacer.

Completely understandable. Like I said, I was curious. I'm sure the guys that would be getting this have no interest in the looks and more the performance. Either way, it's a beautiful piece of custom fab bro.

You can not run the MDX spacer with this mani, you will be into the hood. That is whay I added the velocity stacks to the inside of the mani, The MDX spacer adds 1" of legnrth to the runners, the adders I weld into the inside actually add 1.75" of legnth to the runners.

Just to give you guys an idea of the scale of a 5" bend. Hopefully the rest of the materials will be here early next week.

It'll be interesting to see how you fab the transition to the TBs, Paul, as well as the filter location....
