Default Anyone using Air Endyne intake manifold?

Hey so I am gonna be running well over 30psi on my engine not the issue but for those who have run the Air Carbon Fiber intake mani's before what ya think of them on boosted engines? I was talking to Tony1 the other day and he was saying his seperated and he went back to Edelbrock. I am hoping that was a fluke and he just had bad luck cause they make really good power from what I have seen. There intake air temp is super low so I mean it seems to be good but will it break on me and I loose 1k like that?

Well I used to run the edelbrock IM and I liked it but the chamber on the AIR is larger and it keeps the heat down more. But I am scared of paying so much and it breaking.

+1 in fact I called Endyn yesterday asking if any of these were still available new and I was told they quit selling them 4 years ago for this simple reason. The guy on the phone said they made AIR aware of the issue, yet AIR didn't want to do anything about it, so Endyn started making and selling their own sheet metal manifolds. I was in the same boat as you, wanted the manifold...but was scared to spend 1200 bucks and have it break with no warranty.

Yeah well I got one for 1k and now I am thinking of using another VictorX on the turbo motor and using the AIR on a NA motor like it was intended to be. That way I am not putting the PSI into it cause I am gonna be running over 40PSI on my car.
