I know it's not JDM, but how many of you would be interested in buying an intake like this (pic is for Honda app) if I work with the mfr to make them for Roadsters?

Here's the mfr's site:

$1225.00 isn't bad considering how much labor-intensive work goes into making that thing.

And that's not counting the "FD1301-20 installation kit"!

Had I not already had my intake manifold powdercoated I would've considered this.

I wish I had the coin to get in on that.

that thing is pimp! How many people do you need to start the process? Or can you make a just a couple if there are too many people interested?

Looks great, Ive just got the inlet manifold on mine all polished.

careful about using a wetlay carbon fiber look intake manifold on a boosted application. I looked at that same manifold as I started the build up of my engine. And with all the carbon work I was having done, I thought that would have been cool too...

High Strength - Tested to 50 PSI and 250 Degrees Fahrenheit for extreme forced induction applications.

Granted, I can appreciate the concern about the strength of a pressure vessel.

I'm still sceptical. Maybe for short bursts, but I'm not sure I'd want it on a track car...

but what do I know, someone else please prove me wrong.

Its very nice, Id go for it on a track or race car, but for a street car, I'll keep my stock polished mani.

Looks like a nice quality piece. I'm sure with the right parts, one can make some good power going NA or turbo.

Well it can't be worse than factory inmanis that are made out of plastic...

ummm. what miata are you driving that has a plastic intake manifold?

One can only assume that he must mean the crosspipe.
