You guys should really do this testing on an engine dyno and have widebands in every primary header tube. This will allow you to really see how the air distribution is.

the ETP 245's are being choked up really bad, a ported fast 90 cant support enough flow to the the 245's. this should be a good match up. did you ceramic coat the intake to reduce heat soak?

Id be interested in one for some L92 heads, this would be perfect for my turbocharged L92 swap.

Id like to have it polished, and wanted to know if you planned on doing any ceramic coating on the inside to help with heat soak? Sounds like a good idea to me.

Would also like to see comparison numbers with the stock aussie L92 intake and maybe the GM carb intake versus your sheetmetal one.

Looks like a sweet and original design.

I was interested till I saw the price....Hogans quoted me the same price for one etc...'


If you make a template for these they wouldnt take a ton of time to fab up etc... If they come down in the $700-800 range I'll be interested.

I think he said that price was including fuel rails and a throttle body? That seems like a pretty good deal to me.
