Points for experimentation in my book, but I think you'll be disapointed when you're done. There are complicated pressure wave timing issues involved with designing effective intake setups.

I was thinking of basicly the same thing the other day. I was thinking more along the lines of useing two stock b16 TB's one would sit where the stock one sits now and the other on the oposite side of the intake.

Only thing that sucks is the intake to master cyclinder clearance.
