nice looking intake, one question though. I noticed in the one pic that the bore is smooth at the outer edge but appears rough on down in there. Is it just the pic and if not what is the reason for that?

They are obviously proven by the Buschur guys and the boys down in PR.

I would have tried them out but went a diff route.

I have a new set of aftermarket wheels/rims that just arrived, this will free up a set of stock wheels to try the slicks on.

so now I have 3 sets:

1- stock wheels/slicks (hopefully I can get them to bead right) - drag strip only
2 - stock wheels/drag radials - street/drag strip
3 - aftermarket wheels/street tires - street only

What kind of TB are you running? If you're running that much boost, you may want to see if your throttle shaft seals are leaking or not.

Congrats on the manifold. Tom is a good guy

Who sells temp reducer intake gasket?

Do they really work?



Also thinking about getting a Vacuum Block....any downside on these?

+1 Check those seals

The gaskets work very well! The vacuum block is the best thing you can get! Keeps all of you vacuum lines clean looking and easy to access. Also easy to keep your boost leak in check.

I put one on my car when I installed my Wilson v2. My car picked up 13whp, but I dunno if that was from the gasket or if it was from switching intakes from the DI to the Wilson v2.

Either Buschur or AWD Mike can get you the gasket
