Intake manifolds testing - April 3

[Slappster]

I want the results

 

[herostar]

soooo....... , I know you did it yesterday, but I'm already really anxious to see what happened

 

[Hal]

Yes, we did the test yesterday.

We are compiling the results and will release them when we are done.

We know you are waiting for results, but on the flip side... how many of you who are "waiting" made a contribution to help cover the cost of this event, or supplied a manifold to test?

Thos who did, will get access to the results before the general public.

Still waiting with no payin. You guys decided to be the nice dsmer's that you are and do this test, now you want "contributions for it". Now thats a real dsmer

dude he said the results are going to be released. its not like you can compile and organize all the results in 5 min. you people need to chill out and just wait.

No, you should go back re-read the post.

I said as special thanks to those that DID contribute, they will get to see the results first.

NABR gets the goods before we do guys, just wait. wait, maybe i should not have said that.

 

[Black95TSIawd]

maybe we should have a forum battle. people take the internet too serious.

Even though I won't be buying an intake mani for probably another year or so, I can't wait to hear the results.

Also, how would an aftermarket IM do on a t25. Would it even be worth it? Would there be any gains at all?

Thanks,
Jake

intake manifold should be one of the last mods. it would be stupid to cosider with a t25 if you cant even afford a 400 dollar 16g.

lets keep this thread only about the test though.

 

[MNGSX]

I'm waiting untill I see the test to buy a manifold..

Hey is it possible Hal to send a little green and get some indepth results early...

 

[Sleepr DSM]

I'm waiting as well.

I love the idea of this test being done using such a well put together setup.Im just not sure I like the atmosphere of information rationing. Or divining the dsm community into sections by levels of importance. We are all grateful for this test.

 

[Sleepr DSM]

By the way, tests like this are one hell of a way to get great publicity for the shop running them. It builds the reputation.

My thanks in advance to Hal, and all the other parties involved.

 

[RuBiCaNT5X]

I don't know about you guys, but I am expecting big things out of the BJ's... I have heard so many good things...

 

[Mindslayer]

Whoever wins or top 3 will get a purchase from me in the next month

 

[Sleepr DSM]

I think it has been pointed out that there probably won't be a "winner". One manifold may have peak power, another may have a very broad power band. The winning manifold will be the one that best suits our own particular application in the best manner.

 

[Hal]

The information is not being rationed.

The people who contributed to making the test happen get to see it two days before everyone else.

In the end, everyone will see the same information.

A shop didn't set this test up.

It was done by a small group of individuals who already had a reputation established in the DSM community.

A reputation so well established that private individuals as well as vendors were willing to send manifolds to be tested.

They did this knowing that based on the established reputations that:

1) The testing would happen
2) The testing would be fair and impartial
3) The manifolds would be returned in a timely manner

Thanks for clarifying that Hal.

Hey Hal First of all Thank you and everyone who made this possible.
Even though I have a sheet metal intake mani already, I am looking forward to the results.


If I had known about the donations earlier I would have given a few bucks.

 

[set3422]

Last but not least, CYCLONE INTAKE MANIFOLD should also be on the contender list.

 

[JohnTSI]

We looking at a week or more befor we have results posted?

 

[Slappster]

The wait is killing me, I wish I hadn't seen this thread until the results were posted, then anxiety wouldn't be a problem.

I know I'll base my intake manny purchase off this test.

 

[clownface]

im interested in this, sounds like a good test.
