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 {:<(
Hey, I've got duct tape. I can tape you to the
belly :-)
Thanks. Let me know if you want any other
pics.
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.
I was sorry to hear that didn't work as well as you
had hoped, but since it works on the ground, it must be capable of
working in the air too. I'm sure this isn't he first disappointment
you've had, and you'll overcome
it.
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.
I really like the fit of the Mazdatrix intake for
a 4-port engine. The port match is good, and the shape of the curves
is nice. It's a good starting point for an
intake.
BTW, are you worried about your 1.75"
runners being restrictive when you go to the -C drive, and 7000+ rpm?
So keep reporting as I am very
interested.
You know there's no avoiding it
