06MREvo, this is the same manifold that we used on the Green, the Red and the HTA86. It's not so much that the car has to be built to the n'th degree, it primarily needs to 'operate' in the manifolds RPM range. Our RPM range at the track was 6500-8500, 7000-9000 and 7500-9500 on each of the turbo setups. The stocker begins to bail out around 6500 where the W2.3+ just begins doing it's work. The operating range is the key.

06 we are running a standard W2 on mild daily driven 8 down in Florida. Cwill did a basic tune and the car will be used to test various new products. We are developing a basic ported intake now that I will run later this year. Indy

I am building a long rod, high deck, 2.2l stroker that will see lots of back road bullying with an FP Red and something not overly lumpy in the cam department, on a stock ECU (gotta keep big brother happy...). This set up will putter to the grocery store and beat up other cars for their lunch money...maybe all in the same day.
A good compromise manifold, for me, would be one that focuses on the meatiest part of the power band from 4000-4500 up towards the top end, but not be focused on the uppermost few thousand revs...hopefully your new "R&D" street manifold will fit the bill for those of us that go to a drag strip maybe once every two years.
I've got my eye on you!
edit: I didn't mean to threadjack here...The gains Wilson is able to make with a ported and in some cases internally "modified" manifold are incredible. The 9sec9 W2.3 is an incredible piece of engineering. I hope this will trickle down to the street/road course (true dual/tri purpose cars...) oriented enthusiast that operates in a wider RPM range than the dedicated drag racer.

Now this is what I will be very excited to see come down the pike!

Wilson Manifolds and 9sec9.com are proud to have ace tuner from Puerto Rico, Javier Monroig as a customer. He tested our W2.3+ with a true full weight street car, "I install your intake in a EVO IX 2.3L, this car run 9.23 full weight(A/C,exhaust,interiors,rear wing etc). This car work great with your manifold(previous intake was ****)", and as a result ordered two more. Welcome Team JVM (Tune:Tuned by Monroig, Shop:Colo Performance, and Driver:Roly), thanks for making the switch to Wilson Manifolds and 9sec9.com. Indy

Javier will be running the W2.3+ on his car El Diablo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Gs7RmAaBY4 along with our Diff Eliminator.
Javiers response to my email " the previous time was 9.38 but we also change for bigger turbo but with your intake turbo lag is same. I think we could run 8.9 with this car right now we are working with drive train. This car has A/C,full interiors & exteriors,full exhaust" JVM. El Tremendo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4uJMAqFHSY
It seems that switching to a larger turbo and the Wilson W2.3+ netted the same spool as a competitors intake and a smaller turbo. Amazing results for a modified stock cast intake manifold when compared to a fully fabricated intake manifold.

We have two left of this last batch. With proven track results not just big dyno numbers this is a proven winner, and the only choice for the serious racer.
