Does anyone have any experience with the Endyn Ported Intake Manifold. I got a price qoute for $750, seems steep considering the price of ITB's.

Here is what the site says
"Our manifold preparation for one of these engines begins with a Skunk2 casting. We cut the plenum in half to facilitate the porting and plenum reshaping.
When I tell people that these manifolds weigh as much as 2 lbs less when we're finished, they think I'm kidding. Believe it. We rather dramatically alter the runner volumes, cross sectional areas, window shapes, and plenum entry geometries in this rework.
Here's the semi-finished manifold interior. The runner roofs are now shorter than the floor, by exactly the ports' dimensional differences. Note the inverted radius we achieve at the upper runner-to-plenum intersect. With the plenum side in place and a 64mm throttle body, this manifold will out-flow the best individual throttle body combination we've ever tested. At .500" valve lift the head/manifold combination will flow 349cfm @ 28"H20 with equally impressive mid-lift numbers."

$500 from these guys. Call and ask for Brad.

 

Wow, thanks

I will have to give them a call

 

I did mine myself, pics of it soon. althought i wasn't aware they went for such a steep price...

if you supply your own manifold it's much cheeper. i think i was quoted like 290.

 

I think Eric's Racing does this also..

 

Ericks Racing uses a ported GSR IM

AND HE USES IT ON A PR3 HEAD TOO....lol No BS

 

Wouldn't it be cheaper to have the manifold extrude honed? I'm also thinking that there would be very similar results...but then again, I don't build race engines.

 

The thing with this mani is that it is supposed to flow better, or as good, as ITB... so for 300$ plus the down time..... I'd say it is a good investment.
