Thread: New VE Billet Intake Manifold

i think these runners will really shine for those willing to rev a fair bit

I have yet to get the car running yet but it is fully built motor so I am not going to do an comparision of the manis but with the O2 on dets there were some pretty amazing gains. I think they were gaining 40-50 whp up top. I am sure the mazworx on will gain that or more.

Oh OK, so your ITM is for a boost application?? I'm trying to figure out 2 things. 1. If I even need a ITM, 2. how much will one help me gain all motor. I'm watching with great interest the 1 the car shop where my car is making.

That is a very nice piece. Very very nice.

If the runners are 5.5" long, and the mean length of the intake ports is about 4.75", then thats 10.25". At that length, you would have a tuned resonance length for a powerband from about 8,100rpm to 11,450rpm give or take. you would need to add 2" roughly to the length of the runner to make the resonance more usable for a bolt on, or modified NA application.

Mazworx, if possible I would like to know the taper of the runners. If the taper is beyond 4-5 degrees, then the taper will begin to effect the resonance tuned length of the intake runner. The wider the taper, then the longer the runners will need to be for the same effective resonance tuning.

Well an ITM will make power over the stock one up top. If you are on a buget I would get a N1 mani and all you have to do it plug the injector holes on the bottom of the mani. If you have money to spend find an O2 mani or buy a Mazworx one. This is for turbo but if you are NA Miko has made a a very simple mani that has pretty good gains but I am sure Mark can design an Na mani that will really make some power.

i see it i see it! i want! nice work

Holy bejeeezus! I'm anxiously awaiting information on a FWD mani for a DE Lowport/Hiport no matter. Just want this bad boy!

Mark,im keen to know what the pricing will be for these & what is the eta on the plenum?

The lower plenum is about 600 dollars. Total cost is expected to be 900-1000 but it needs some revisions for fitment and other things. I believe it includes a fuel rail as well.

I have been watching this thread closely.... do you think it's going to be possible for someone all the way over in NZ to get their hands on one of these? Is it possible to request the fuel rail and injector holes to fit top feed injectors rather than sidefeed? Fantastic that it will be made to fit the Q45 Throttlebody

I'll keep waiting and watching
