TPI in the Vector...
Not really 3rd gen related but Who says TPI can't make serious power?
I just read this article, and guess what engine they used in the Vector? At 650hp, whether or not it is true... https://www.hagerty.com/articles-vid...onday_March_25
Look at the runners, they appear to be conical in shape, not tubular, which would actually help with the resonating frequency of the tubes.

Re: TPI in the Vector...
With the single blade TB it almost looks like a FIRST intake rather than an actual TPI. I am thinking that the tubes is just an optical illusion
