figured id post this here too. a friend of my reffered me to this guy after we spoke for a while. Knowing that no official releases have been made by any of the companies that are currently in works of making one I decided to hit this guy up for a custom one.

Anyway, it apprears this is going to the first of its kind and is going to be going in production. for those who are interested you can get these soon at www.endtankusa.com

when its available for sale i'll let you guys know. i am not organizing any group buy or anything but just throwing this out there for those who are interested.

This guys does quality work, top notch, and is very anal about his finished product.

anyway on to the pics.

pic of the runners... this is a machined one piece

That does look nice but what about the tumble flaps? Looks like this just does aways with them, I'm not sure what the difference would be but I'd guess you'ld get a CEL and rough idle.

You might loose a bit of torque with a static inlet like this. The idea of varible length in-let tracts/tumble flaps is that by varying the length of the runners you can optimise the engines output giving tractability and torque low down, without having to compromise at the top end.
