What do you guys think about this manifold?

gay and cheesy are the first words to mind... then expensive

my 2 cents

 

that guys a joke.

the guy cant even get a 9 sec licensce, NHRA deemed him UNSAFE to drive, due to his just not being quite "all there".

i've had a few parts from him. the parts work.
but hes a TALKER, and cant back up anything.he'll tell you how every part he has will give you 40 -50 HP.

he is the epitome of fast and furious.

and that manifold is a fuking joke.

 

It looks like that manifold is for a duel carb set up. a set of Weber DCOE45 side drafts would bolt right up, if so then the manifold should work for that kind of aplication. You could use the new weber throttlebody's which have the same bolt pattern as a DCOE but use Bosch injectors. here is a pic of the throttle bodys that would work with that manifold. The design looks a little cheesy but all in all it should work if looks is not an issue. here is a pic of the throttle body. http://www.gotech.co.za/images...2.jpg

Made From Space Age Composite Material

hehe, the new and imporved Platonuim intake manifold(professional install recomended) will charge your intake with radio active air(May cause cancer) thus improving your combustion charge, ever seen an H-bomb going off? With the correct 10,000.5.1CR pistons you will achieve critcal mass with ever compression stroke! As far as dyno test go , we can never finish one because the electro magnetic pulse turns off the power to the dyno machine,,, ,,,,LOL J/k

I am kidding for all of you who were buying into that, it's a joke!

 

Expensive, maybe. But if it is made out of a material that doesn't hold heat (whatever that 'space age material' is) it will do just as much good performance wise as a CAI. It's nothing new though, domestic cars have used wooden spacers between the carb and the manifold way back and now they're made out of a phenolic material. Depending on the mounting points of that spacer it might be an easy way to hook up individual throttle bodies. Just my $ worth. The theory behind it is solid but whether or not it flows and what the composition of it is is a different story.

 

I didn't even see it before but the DH-Racing is Dave Hickman Racing....the same guy that tried to make a civic into a spaceship with fiberglass back in 99-2000.......the civic was ugly as hell but moved pretty well.....I think the new one is a bit more normal looking but is chopped in the rear, the rear window is almost nonexistent....

 

uuuhhh, what the hell! HAVE TO LOVE THE EBAY

 

Watch out for the " Ant Eater " lol

Damn that anteater was an ugly *** car. But that manifold just straight out looks nasty. Was up Indo. Car almost done? Mikey
