Thanks Boltz, much appreciated. I've toned down the internet drama over the last year.

David24, no BR logo etched into it. I'm not much on throwing my name on all our parts, I know it's good advertisement but I've never been crazy about doing it. It's like buying a new car and the dealer putting their ugly sticker on the back of the car. I figure if I or you want to promote someone because they like them, they can put their own stickers on

Looks like a nice winter project for me!

Just the R & D and testing you've done should make this thing priceless! Thanks so much for all the time you've put into testing intake manifolds. This makes it easier for the community to get the most out of it and their money.

Can't wait to get mine

That's a good point!

Fitment is excellent, I wanted to be able to use our standard intercooler pipes. I hated when I had to cut or modify the i/c pipes to test some of the intake manifold we ran. The throttle body is very-very close to the stock location, no modifications required to the plumbing.

Trent started welding up more today, I appreciate all the PM's, thanks everyone.

One other thing I wanted to point out. We are calling this a "Fabricated Intake Manifold" rather than referring to it as "sheetmetal" because of the material.

The entire plenum and end plates for the plenum are made from .120 thick formed aluminum, it's not the typical .065 thick sheetmetal I see in many other intakes. The head flange is CNC'd from billet, the TB flange is 1/2" thick and also CNC'd from billet. The fuel rail is held on by bolts that thread into the head flange, so we don't have anything that can fatigue and crack or break off.

Those are a few other features I wanted to point out.
