It's a very reliable motor. No one gives it a chance. I decided to build it to see what it can do.

Ya I did all the work on the car. Here's a few pics of the car back when it had a 4g63 in it.

Post by: HiProfile on July 26, 2009, 12:31:10 PM: Nice work & nice thread, people here should take a hint. As in finish their shit before posting. :yes:

I'd really have suggested straight tubes for those runners. In that configuration, the pulse doesn't follow the radius, so it wouldn't get closer to equal-length. The other downside is how it jacks up flow. 22.5* elbows don't restrict much, but a whole lot more than a straight tube. Or are you trying to prevent laminar air flow?
