I'll take some of that popcorn, thank you very much

Sadly, that's the kind of attitude that seems to make a lot of manufacturers hesitate before making parts for a "cheap" car, I guess

Richard, don't let a bad apple spoil our bunch

now I'm gonna go off and collect some soda cans, PVC tubing and RTV silicone and make my own intake out of that

[ROCKLAND TOYOTA]

hey richard, what happens after the first ten are sold and shipped.is there gonna another group buy right away seeing as tax season is 3 months away??

[Klink10]

11 and I believe you can still get on the list. Just needed 10 to get the ball rolling.

I will give you a free intake/mani if you can tell me .......

Does these challenges apply to everyone

Yeah dude, for a custom piece that he produced this way for a small community that is a damn good price.

If you look online for custom manifolds cheapest you would find them would be $500 that are not mass produced and they are of crap design because they just slap them together with whatever size runners fit in the engine bay.

I think even $700 is on the cheap side for this product, but seeing that this is a cheap car to begin with i think it is a good price!

Oh and Richard, are you using velocity stacks, or are you just smoothing out the entry to the runners

^^^i hope. but prob not. would increase cost unless its already done and factored in...

[richardholdener]

Design does include radiused entries (bellmouth tubing).

Richard Holdener has been around for many, many years and was an inspiration of mine back in the early 90's when he had his Vortech Supercharged Mustang Sedan. He also has built the fastest civic I believe and was ran on the salt flats. Although time in the industry isnt everything, take a look around and find out who you are accusing of not knowing anything. Richard has done more for the aftermarket indusrty then most of you younger people can imagine.

was that the civic in a mag with the moon disc wheel covers ^^^ !!!!! if so i have that mag

[richardholdener]

We ran the Civic in Sept 08 at Speed Week (Bonnevile) and set a (2-way) new land speed record of 226.5 mph-making it still the world's fastest honda civic. PS-car was on track to run 235 mph but we broke a CV joint at the 4th mile marker (Bonneville is 5 miles in length). Pretty wild ride having the CV let go at 227 mph! Good in-car footage of parachute saving my bacon!

I will give you a free intake if you can tell me what the three forms of charge filling are associated with an intake design. You may have guessed by now that there is much more to an intake manifold than your previous description (we call the earlier comments sarcasm). I'll throw in a free long-tube header if you can tell me what the problem is asssociated with combining the three forms. You have all of the internet and every book ever written to source the information-you have 1 week.

Ok Here i go... charge filling .. what is that layman's speak! The only 3 things you'll need are as follows: Duck Tape.. Aluminum.. and some more ducktape with coke... ok here i go

The problem with combining these 3 so called "charge fillings" is that.. As you many know, Coke doesn't go well with aluminum. So the trick is not to touch them. You get sheets of aluminum and put them in the right places... duck tape them together right? Then drink some coke along the way, but don't drink all of it you will need some later. Once you've buffed out the ruffs you add some more duck tape then buff again. Once it's all done.... You get the remaining coke, should be 240 ml of it. you pour some through the system and make sure there are no leaks. Bingo you've got yourself a beautiful top of the line intake manifold. The remaining coke is used to pour on the manifold itself as to give it a tint.(the coke can only go on at this point.. Before and it will destroy the aluminum.. after and it will not tint) Makes for a great tint for car shows... Viola!

P.S. does this mean ill be getting a mani and a header? Gosh Darnit I Hope so!

[richardholdener]

Actually you had it all right except its Pepsi and not Coke! NO mani for you!
