After atomic posted these guys website up in the intake manifold discussion, I've chatted with Kevin there through email.

As you can see, normally the M20 setup comes in at a tick under $1800. Still working out the details but it appears that with 6 sales he would take 20% off, so around $1420. Obviously you still need EMS and a plenum (they do have a template for the ITB's to build your own).

Consider the Dbilas setup (with the current exchange rate) is checking in at just under $3k. Although I'm not sure what all the Dbilas comes with so I won't make any comments there.


No hurry on this, just thought I'd send out a feeler.

What about for 24v?

[vivalegreg]

that looks really good..

What about running it without a plenum?

[Edev]

what benefits would you see? im not sure what an ITB does to our cars.

What about for 24v?

They do have a 24v kit. He said for the purposes of the GB they all needed to be the same. But I'll double check and see if its a possibility.

What about running it without a plenum?

You could, the TB's have a nipple next to the fuel injector opening so you can connect all 6 TB's to a vacuum log and take a MAP reading from that. But I thought I remembered Ely (rs4pro3) having problems with that on his homemade setup. If you wanted to run an Alpha-N setup you could probably get away with it.

The 24v setup is pretty nice as well. I know a guy who has them for his turbo M52 he is building in his e30.

Your thinking like me.

Machine work might have to hold off for a while..lol

You will need at least runners.

I have heard some not so good things about Extrudabody wear wise.

I don't have any personal experience with them either, so I can't comment on that.

However, if you don't have evidence to back up your claims, don't start talking shit about a vendor based on hear say.

now we're talking.

how much does the kit cost anyway?

[Huff]

Man.. At that price point I'm VERY interested.

[e30this]

So does the price go down if more people get invloved?
Even if it is 24V and M20??

[tecks2k]

Those are freaking beautiful! WOW!
