Individual throttle bodies are what the Aussies use to tame huge cams down under...that and some kickass speed density tuning!

How do you do speed density tuning on an LS1?

And how does that handle huge cams?

Their website shows a dynograph of 400 rwhp. I did not see if that is on a stock LS1 motor or modded. If it where cheaper, I would definately be interested.

4 grand for that thing.. that is bannanas. No way in hell that thing will have big enough gains over a Fast 90/90 setup to be worth triple the price. Hell.. I could go the route of a sheet metal intake for less then that, and there's no way that thing is gonna make enough to be worth while over a sheet metal setup.. hell, I'd almost bet that it makes less then a good sheetmetal unit. Never mind all the moving parts on that thing that could have a problem. Be a neat thing to have on a ls1 motor that was in somethign like an old 50's showcar or something.... for the look, but that's about it.

I posted a while back and nobody really figured out if this would yield more power. Probably because not many people, if any, have experience with this on ls1tech. But those plastic intakes are removable so you can really set it up as 8 intakes instead of 4 TBs using one common intake on each side. Looks to be a showstopper though, say you have a show ls1 car and pop the hood and that shiny thing is sittin there, winner.

its a very sweet setup, you would think a braided line for the fuel, and some aluminum or stainless rods for the trottle shafts too..

Thats th C5-R set up. If it was a race car and didnt require an air filter, I could see it fitting under the cowl. If it was similar to the chevy big block cross ram I could see it working on a street car.
