Intake base - wheres the guy who did MAJOR porting..

to a stock TPI base?? Where the runners attach to the manifold, he took that area and opened it up (kinda siamesed it) for a larger plenum area for the runners to feed from. Anyone knwo who or what im talkin about? i was wondering what the results were and such.

Lemme know how that turns out for you.

Theres also another guy who did this (to an aftermarket base) and compared it to a miniram as well. He has links to his page on the link to my post listed above. Definitely some good information on this subject in a very short time.



BTW if you have questions, post here or email me, I'm usually around once a day.
