Damn. Maybe I should buy that when I replace my vortech v3 SCi blower / A2A kit in the faaaar future with a V7-YSi blower then. Since the v7 is already proven to fit in our cars

i will buy this for the future. few years down when i upgrade my blower from v3 SCi to a v7 YSi. that way i can swap out the stillen manifold with this one, and run the v7 YSi.

let us know when you are taking orders
I will purchase one and keep it sitting in my room until im ready to upgrade

I definitely will. Should have the first version printed within the next week or two and then do some testing and tuning to get it all dialed in.

Any idea or guesses on how this would fare against the AAM Competition Intake Manifold?

Another manifold thread. Waiting for results from testing. Maybe this could be far superior to the stock waffle with gains all across the board? How are you going to compare the prototype vs the waffle? tuned waffle vs tuned prototype?

Sorry for the long delay but I finally got the first version printed and test fitted.

Going back over it now to make a few modifications and add all of the bolt and vacuum connections.
Plan on having a final working version in the next 2-3 weeks.
Once it has been thoroughly tested then I will be offering a limited number of them for sale.
Price will be around $1,000 each. Some other colors and finishes including carbon will be available in the future.
Since it's a 3 piece design, the plenums will be interchangeable with new finishes as they become available.

These will go quick so if you're interested in getting one then please message me so I know how many I need to have ready. Initial production will be 5-10


(sorry the pics are upside down. damn iphones)

Very interesting. Have you drive the car with it yet and do you feel that there are any gains?
