Too be honest I wasnt really looking for what kind of gains this had. I wanted something different than a cosworth or kinetix. Khamla is going to build a log style instead, and will definately have more volume compared to the stock plenum or any other plenum out there.
Its a week lead time for these, if you are serious about doing this let me know.


The intake piping will run towards the stock intake area which then the MAF would be connected, or where ever you want it actually lol.

Not a big fan of that intake.. Looks like a giant innertube on top of your motor.. I think the polished stock plenum looks a whole lot better.

hmmm I'd love to dyno it before I commit... but I'm in, I was going to try to make one myself but I'd rather someone with experience in that area produce something.

Khamla made a pretty sick intake manifold for Marcus' turbo Honda Fit.

I saw that fit at the last Import face off that was one pretty engine bay. That is a cool idea for a intake but wouldn't work for me there is a super charger in the way. If it makes power and looks good that is the best of both worlds.

The never ending battle of happy mediums... I've almost lost faith in the existence of a perfect balance, but the search will never stop.
