Default A directport for the Sand Dunes



Hey guys I thought I would leave you with a nice picture of a Directport for a dunebuggy. When we return from Vacation I will share the rest with you.(not enough time to do so now)

Now these guys know how to go to the sand dunes....
We just finished this dual stage Intake for Forrester Racing Engines. They build some really wicked dune buggies with LS1s. Check them out here. http://www.forresterracingengines.com/Main.aspx

That's sweet, I really like how the solenoids are mounted on the front attatched to the rails. That dune buggy will definetly haul some major ***.

That Direct Port looks completely sick! I really like the solenoid mount.

I didn't notice the plate system at first, that plate is icing on the cake!

Dave, you should do one of your setups on FRE/Wilson custom intake..that thing looks sweet. Awesome setup once again. I also like the noid brackets and hose routing. Clean, yet sophisticated and powerful.

Damn! That looks ridiculous. I'd drive a dune buggy if it had that, but only if it did! Just kidding

Guys I just swaped out the pictures to some better ones. Notice how all the solenoids are hard mounted. Even the plate noids for the second stage. We did this so that they can jump the rail with out breaking anything loose.
