Looks pretty back yard to me... But heck, if it functions well, then I dont mind looking at it. I'm still waiting on my HSR...It's been on order since April. I'm starting to get

edit: Oh, yes, it is the HSR base...the HSR base is actually the same as another Holley intake by the way. They're dealing with vette hood clearance issues I guess...

I would kill for a CF superram. I couldn't believe how heavy the damn thing was when I installed it. Thinking about going with a billet lid to save on some weight.

Hey roc man, I still lurk the boards. FInally got my HSR also.(just wating on fuel rails now)

The CF(actuallly Carbon/kevlar mix) superram is almost done. I started a diff job. so It was kinda put on hold. I left it with a buddy at the old job for the final touches. Calling him monday to see how its going actually. You know pic's will be posted if it turns out nice.

btw, opened my own business doing powdercoating also. Hopefully I find some time to get the site up and done.

the twin ford TB's would go well with a nice twin turbo setup. Just think, twin turbos, twin intercoolers, twin TB's and lots of HP on tap

Right on man. I should post that cardboard pic just for kicks. I still owe you for a FP gauge, If you need any help with your site let me know. Best of luck in your ventures.
