well weve already worked up the design that we want. and we just got the tubes and everything in the other day. so we will start making the first working plenum pretty soon. id say probably 2-3 weeks or so.

Make sure you dyno the plenum, before and after, I think more people will jump on it then.

This is PIVITAL. I've seen "rear plug access" plenums bite the dust before because people were too lazy to dyno them.

Quoted for truth. GTPro's manifold is notorious for this. Looked great. Costed like $1k, but absolutely no one bought it because it was never proven!

Servidjo your deff. a good candidate for this test, especially Ray tunning the car. I just spun a bearing two nights ago preping my car for a steet race, to make sure everything was OK ( guess it wasnt, after two years of beating on it at 35 PSI almost all the time , it was time to GO)...

Im still very interested in one, for my new project....

when we get the plenum done we will work out how to get it dynoed. might offer a program of $50 off for anyone that produces dyno numbers or something like that.

but we will figure it out when everythign gets done.
