    By no means the worlds greatest manifold, but its good inspiration and great way to get some people doing some DIY.

    hehehe, neither is that a particularly good manifold, nor is is 'easy enough' lol...

    wait till you actually have to make one, let alone a 'decent' one and see how hard it actually is, let alone how much it costs !!

    Heh, yeah, it certainly isnt fun. Even making the plenum for my quads isnt fun, and thats mostly due to brake clearances and stuff.

    After building a turbo manifold and realising how time consuming and what a pain in arse that was, i really cant imagine an intake manifold being much easier.

    I cant use that link but making stuff out of cardboard first is the go.there are formulas around for plenum volume,use NA style bellmouth runners.
    copy a big dollar design.Only for those that actually enjoy the DIY process of course.

    nudge my rep please..............
