So since this is almost like the stock piece it could be snuck through smog as if it were a stock base? That that the main adavantage as opposed to going to a Ram Jet?

congratulations! doesnt look like a lot of
meat on the tube ports for large tube porting? 50hp takes a long time to make, eh?
stickers i mean....

tas:
the TPI base reains the low end torque over the
ramjet. the ramjet with 4in runners will act
miniramish more top end, less torque. kind of
the in between from the TPI to miniram.
