Wow!.. thats some rowdy stuff. Thanks for the post.

Fireant

Does this IM provide any advantages at all over a stock ported one if you plan to stay under 500awhp?
Faster spool, better torque, better hp, etc.

Any info is much appreciated.

Edit: PORTED OEM INTAKE

STi*guy.kiev

you should see solid topend gains AFTER 550wheel, but more importantly the intake manifold help you make power at less boost, allows more timing and more balanced flow which evens out the afr in each cylinder. It is widely known that the stock manifold is imbalanced, making an aftermarket IM a sefety mod as well.

For Buschur and Driven innovation, I want to add that I know how sceptic you are about meth injection, Im well aware that e85 > METH, and the added dangers of meth and hassle in exploitation
BUT my biggest reason being many overseas customers have no access to raw e85 ethanol mix, and cheap race fuels like in the US. There's a big difference between running a 10 sec pass on a cold motor at high boost slamming throught the gears and letting off, and abusing the engine in our long 5th gear at already high speed. I've personally seem more cars fail on long road trips and runs from low rpm in high gears while passing traffic.... I dont want this to become a debate of driving techniques and street racing, but just making my point.

Id love to see either of these products with support for a direct port meth kit, by custom order at least. Hope I dont get flamed...

The answers above are incorrect Firant.

On our dyno if you are under about 550 whp the BEST INTAKE MANIFOLD FOR YOUR CAR IS A PORTED STOCK INTAKE.

Running individual jets for alcohol isn't a big science. If I were "you" and was set on running alcohol injection I'd buy DI's 8 injector intake manifold and put a set of second injectors in for alky injection and run your alky injection kit to that secondary rail and then manage it all off your stand alone. Running a batch fired injector in each cylinder is easy to do and you need nothing more than a set of dry nitrous nozzles tapped into the back of your intake, run the alky injection kit hose to a common nitrous distribution box and inject it to each cylinder.

BTW, I've enjoyed working with DI. I would test his new intakes when they are done, he knows that and we've discusses it. If they perform better than ours I would stop making ours. Right now I like our product the best.

Thanks Dave! Ive been sending my customers your way ever since we stopped making ours.

I will send one out to you when they are done.

Every Mivec, Stock Frame & Stock Ecu record in my Signature was set on a BUSCHUR PORTED STOCK MANIFOLD.. Keep that in mind.. Not sure how many guys looking to run 9.0 on radials or 8s on slicks..

The 8.75 was run with a Driven Innovations Manifold..

Glad i picked up a BR Ported OEM intake for now.... Thanks again Mike

Thanks David,

As I understood I can run either
a). Sequencial meth injection through fuel injectors controlled via the standalone EMS using a secondary fuel rail and conventional fuel lines/FPR/TANK/RETURN or
b). use batch fired nozzles (not injectors) throught custom mounted standart meth nozzles on the IM, controlled through thier supplied brain (INJECTOR DUTY DEPENDENT in case of AQUAMIST), using stock ECU or standalone EMS.

DID I undertand you entirely on this one?

Yes Mike, you guys have absolutely FLOWN on our ported IM! THANK YOU!

Sounds good Tom, send it out whenever you are done. Your stuff has worked very well and as I told you, I wasn't building mine and was looking for yours!
