      Your new intake looks good from the bottom, err I guess for you, its the side {:>).  Lets see some of the other side.
I don't think working on these fiberglass ducts is going to substitute for flying, I'd come visit you, but its a single seater {:<(
 
I am thinking about something along the same lines for my next manifold.  Part of the lack of any thing (increase or decrease) in the air with my variable manifold I believe in part due to having the two tubes too close.  The turn at the top was so tight that it probably looked a lot like the end of a tube to the wave.  Also I know the bottom manifold was bad for air flow.
 
Using the IDA type manifold spreads the tubes from 90mm CL to 120 mm CL apart and that would permit a gentler bend for the wave.  Well, something to do when I get finished with the ducts.
 
So keep reporting as I am very interested.

Heah, RD. How about a pix of the TB/intake?

You're in luck.  I actually took the camera today :-)   I scaled these way down from the default resolution, but I'm going to send them in  three posts to  avoid ringing the bell on Marvin's software.
