Default Nasty Performance Sheet Metal intakes

We are looking to get a group together that want the famous intake built. I have had a lot of interest in them lately and can only get them built if we get a few definate orders. I want to start a list of people interested in these and if we have a few we can getr some orders going and get them built again. Post up guys.

Starting at $2499.99
We can do a few custom addons and coatings work well with 90mm Nick Williams TB's or for the BS3 and FAST guys work great with the 90mm Ford style TB as well.

Thanks Nate

Any plans for a sheetmetal top loader like the GMPP that everyone is going to switch to next year? You could make sheetmetal 90 elbows to go with them. They would be a hell of alot lighter that the cast pieces? just a thought. Your intakes are super nice looking and your gas tanks are top notch

Can one get the intake with three bolt patterns for the LS1/LS6 style TB or the four bolt FAST/LS2 style?

I'd expect it to come plated in gold (just kidding), but it does look like a stout piece.


All things aside, what kind of performance gains are we talking about?

We also set the GMPP manifold up to accept injection. As far as a sheet metal version there is not enough height to get any runner length into it.

We can do any TB setup you need I have made them with all different TB's.

On our testing we used a stout 427 solid motor and it made 55rwhp over a ported LS6 intake and lost nothing down low. Started to realy make power above 4000rpm to push the motor over 600rwhp. Only gets better with boost the more you push the better it flows. It is deffinatly not for smaller CI cars but if you got a healthy motor that likes to breath it will help and then some.

It is sheet aluminum and the one pictured is ceramic coated.

And they do include the fuel rails.

Thanks nate

I have never tested it against the GMPP intake. They are 2 very different intakes ours has much longer runners to keep the lowend and tappered runners to aid the volocity. The GM intake is very short runners and very high volume it will be good at high RPM and big boost Race applications but not for anything else. The lowend is going to tank below 5000rpm

Interesting on your runner setups. How is the plenum constructed? Is there an inspection pannel that is removeable on the top of the manifold with screws or something?
