Holy batman. That is unbelievable. You probably can put a plastic surgeon out of business with that thing. Just advertise " strap in the front seat and get a face lift" all done within a guarter mile!

Tom is definitely the man. When you want the best of the best of the best...call MIB, er NRE. The mirrored turbos are nice.

Thanks for all the nice compliments,And thanks to Pete and Scott for there patience I couldn't ask for better guys to deal with.The devolpment of this intake took a ton of time.But Holy Moly does it work sweet we didn't even scratch the surface at 1590 hp the motor made 1100hp 6000 rpm 1100 ft lbs at 10 psi and was making 930 ft lbs at 3000 rpm just stupid power and made 1300hp on 91octane.I took some video of the dyno but it will be a few weeks before i can post it.Glad to see you guys like it also.

Tom, very nice ! :hail:

The intake plenum on my 440 mopar was inspired by some of your older work. How was this intake built ? Is the plenum and throttle body cnc work or is some of it welded and then smoothed ?

looks like there are alot of pieces to that intake.
How do you get it to seal up everywhere.

So, maybe it could accidently fall between the frame rails of Karma and Tony could break it in. :D

Not to hijack the thread but is that a ceramic coating on the exhaust? It looks like chrome but wont chrome turn colors from the heat? Does anybody know who does the exhaust coating like that? Again sorry for jacking this.

Just the top billet piece would make one crazy cool air cleaner for a carbed setup!! Then just add a conical filter on the snout!

Everthing is o-ring grooved and the nice thing is its totally true and flat we machine everything to .030 to size let it releave and move the final machine it.
