Sorry for not posting up in a few weeks guys, I have been out of the shop with my new baby daughter! I missed a few q's, so I will try to answer them in PM's. Feel free to pm me as well! -Bob

I apologize for missing the barrage of posts from yesterday! I did sell this manifold and it did ship out yesterday via fedex (011682815008585) Thanks for the interest guys/gals! -Bob

Yes he did, exactly the same as this one. I did Jerry's too :rock: I did receive payment, and will post up shipping info on this later today. Thanks again for looking guys! -Bob

Sale pending..... I will be back online checking messages on Monday night or Tuesday as I will be at an event in Ohio this weekend. Thanks again guys! -Bob

Right, right. But not all boost comes from SC's ;)

Thanks. Keep in mind the more CFM you throw at it (more revs or boosted) the better it will perform :rock:

Hello all! I have one intake manifold that was done up for DC Performance that I have been sitting on for over a year and I want to move it. For those who don't know about this manifold already this is fully hand ported in both the runners and plenum, shaped for much improved airflow...

DC Performance and I will be working this out in the coming week or so. I will say that at this point, there are no cores available for swaps, and even if we did get some I would expect that the core fee would be significantly more than the cost of the ported and coated manifold. We have...

No offense taken and I appreciate the input. I agree that there will always be factors to take into consideration if even it was at the same track. Baro pressures and weather can create abnormal and inaccurate results too, and I am well aware of this. I was just asked by Lyle to further...

So I just got off the phone with Lyle at DC Performance and he was giddy as a school girl over the track results. He stated that he ran through a few calculations from his Motec training back when he was with Edelbrock. Based on the figures from that training he was told that for every MPH...

Burnsville offroad does some wicked builds for sure. And the cool thing is, they are only 25mi away from me so I can swing by and drool any time I want ;P

DC Performance and I will be continuing testing and because the net power on the dyno wasn't what was expected (although the 'ram' effect is obvious in trainman's results at the track) we will be seeking out a more robust platform to test on. We haven't solidified anything yet, but think about a...

Great results Trainman! Keep up the good times! I'm glad that the intake is shinning more than what the dyno showed initially :rock: Although I never had any doubts. Get that suspension dialed in and get back to your 1.7 60's and you'll be golden.

We are still in testing and nothing is solid at this point, but I will say that when they are available DC Performance will be selling them on here. Expect pricing to be in the ~$1000-1200 range without core. We have gone head to head with EH or even CNC porting and always come out on top...

Again, it is possible to do it better than EH by hand.... For the entire manifold.... not just port matching. After all, hand porting does offer better shape control than EH.

I agree, and hand porting does have better shape control than the EH process... I explained it in better detail here: http://www.vtcoa.com/forums/showpost.php?p=595797&postcount=45 Keep in mind that there is a difference between cheap and value too... ;)

Definately keep up updated with the results! Good luck too!

No, I have not personally worked with that setup before. I have talked with Kevin at exotic engines about a few tweaks and I would expect to see them in up coming versions of the manifolds we put out.

I can guarantee there is more than 2% gains to be had from the work. All this test showed was that even as good as the portwork and ceramic coatings are, it is not the major restriction on a stock setup. Hell I get more out of NA 4cyl intake manifolds most of the time. If I had to guess...

I do apply ceramics as part of my daily routine. The thermal barrier coatings that would go on the combustion chamber and/or piston tops will do nothing for strength, but help minimize hotspots and ultimately let you tune 'closer to the edge' without detonation. The skirt coatings do help...
