My eyesight isn't 20/20, but I'm thinking that you are planning to cut the hood and let it breath right too! You da man.

I doubt it, the engine is tilted more then normal on the stand. That would be very cool though!

Well, becuase there happens to be an eaton m62 supercharger that will be lurking below the intake:eeek::twisted:

nice work on the fabrication .... is there any reason/benefit to using a plenum vs using trumpets? if u will run MS, i'm thinking tuning of either will be possible.. why go thru the hassle ..

[tn325i]

Ely when the hood opens and those ITBs are spotted there will be so much drooling the paint on the plenum won't even be noticed..

[Jeremiel5]

HOTNESS! wow! can you please fabricate these and sell me a whole setup?:D

[Jparkr]

beautiful!

:ohsnap:








Paint didn't turn out as nice as I hoped on the plenum, first time I'd ever used wrinkle finish paint.

Hopefully in a couple weeks I'll find time to get this mounted on the car:D

idle bypass? I no longer have an ICV at all. The idle speed on these is controlled by a small bypass screw on each throttle body.

Ok, thats awesome. Nice work, hope mine turns out like this.:D

Nice work man, JB weld comes in handy alot lols.
you might have better success if you rounded the runners into the plenum to be flush with the plenum, better transition.

Well I wanted a protrusion to which velocity stacks could be later added on to

Nice work, Ely. I like to see the DIY ITB set ups, especially since I plan on doing one myself eventually, whether completely DIY like this that requires lots of fab work, or buying real automotive throttlebodies from a manufacturer and still building my own system.

I noticed there was a manufacturer posted a little while ago, but has anybody looked at www.jenvey.co.uk ? Those things look AMAZING. Check out the trumpets too, available in CF. Oooh :D Of course just the throttle bodies would cost more than what could be otherwise put into a complete set up scratch built like this.

Looks good though, keep us updated as usual.
