i installed 2 of the wilson's resetting burst panels, under $200 protects a $3200 Hogan sheet metal intake. if my burst panels didn't function then i would be calling the vendor to understand why they did not function as designed. just my .02

there was talk by a few members here a month or two ago of cutting the bottom off a FAST intake and reinstalling it using springs. Basically if the pressure in the intake was too great it would push on the bottom against the springs and open up just like a giant reusable burst disk. I don't know what ever happened to the idea though.
If you were really worried about it, drill a hole in the top of your intake manifold and attach a blow off valve. There's your FI for ya.

I thought it was spring loading the mounting bolts. That way when the motor backfired/loaded up the springs would allow the manifold top to unseat and vent the pressure. Then it would semi-reseat itself
