Default Your thoughts on Individual TB's

Just got an email from http://www.twminduction.com/ stating that they're currently working on setups for LS1's that look like this

Thoughts? Opinions? Definently a 10 in the pimp factor, especially with a 4" cowl hood and custom airbox that works with the cowl...like im thinking

restrictive? not at all. Each runner is only 1-2" long, and goes directly straight up and down. How is that restrictive? An intake that pulls air from top to bottom is going to be more effective than any intake that pulls air from 90* in front of it.

It looks like a shaft runs through 4 on one side and another shaft runs through 4 on the other side. Would there only be one TPS and how does a linkage work on a set up like that??

The Ozzies have a much nicer carbon fibre crossover setup.

That will never fit in a F-body. You would have to go back in and cut the front window. Or try and move the motor forward. I think the driveability would suffer from the short runner length. Only WOT drivers need apply. There is aready one of these out for LS1, can't remeber the maker though.
