You do realize the TB will be in the fire wall of a FWD SR20 no matter what you do.

On a K20 and SRT motor the intake runners will be to short to get the design to work.

That design is a RWD motor setup only because of clearance.

If it was so easy people would be doing them. The problem is it is not posible because of space and if you cant see that then I dont know what to tell you.

Hey ben what program are you using for your flow analysis?
Also it looks like to model it you've just cut it out of a solid block, was this done for a reason to do with the program, or just because its quicker to model.
I do alot of cad work, no flow analysis though, was just interested as i have designed and modelled an ITB setup for the ve and would love to put it through some flow analysis software

You could go extreem and cut a hole in the firewall, haha but who would do that. Good point because they would have been out by now if it would have worked.

That is Solidworks and looks like just the FloXpress module.

It isn't anything fancy.

Also he need to realize that the problem is not any where as bad on a 4 cylinder as it is on a 6 cylinder.

Nice thanks wnwright, i have experience with solidworks, inventor and solidedge. Currently working with solidedge which is my least favourite of the three. I've played round with the flow analysis software in inventor but that was a while ago now. I can't even remember the name of it.
Quite keen to get hold of something to muck round with.

No problem

I use it enough to know. Although I take back that it is FloXpress cause I think it can only do one in and one out. Has to be FloWorks to do multi out like that.
