Emailed Shawn about buying one of these to test against all the other manifolds we own. We all know this one looks by far the prettiest, and is basically a work of art, but it all comes down to function at the end of the day. No response to my email...
@A4RingedONE8T Take this mans money!

Good for you Tony, clearly you are interested in finding the best stuff for your situation. I look forward to your feedback.

My apologies for leaving my computer for a few days =) I'll get a manifold headed to you as soon as I have one available.

Alright boys and girls, I'm a day early, here it is! First 8 manifolds are already claimed, I have billet machined for 5, and have billet for 10 more coming early next week. I will be machining, fabbing, and getting these out the door as quick as I can! Let me know if any questions! I decided to opt out of intro pricing and just keep the manifolds at the lowest price I could.

Manifold w/o secondary fueling $1,895.00
Manifold w/ port injection $2,195.00

What you are describing Omar is the Doc Race manifold which we also have. It has a massive plenum, and shorter runners, we do not see it shift the power or tq curve right or left, seems to stay pretty much in place. We have one of these coming as well to test against everything we currently have. Doc Race, EOS, Stock, and the BKC manifold. We are putting a ported head on the car this weekend, this should help remove restriction after the manifold, and show true gains, or losses from the manifolds.

m looking forward to see the before and after results...

We already have all the before results for Doc Race, and EOS. Sorry we wont be swapping heads back and forth to give people test results before, and after. We have plenty of deltas with a stock head, we will test all 4 manifolds on the built head, same tune, same turbos, no changes but the manifolds. It should shed some light on how much difference if any Intake manifolds have on N54 performance around thee 800WHP level

To be fair, you may need some cams as well in regards to gains for the head as well.

We had one in the works, but there is no need for it. Just complicates everything in the engine bay for no real benefits. If there was enough interest we may revive it.

thats the plan. I want to celebrate having the car back on the road by taking it to the 1/2 mile race that happening in S.FL.....hopefully i can have it ready
Well, I went with a bottom mount and an EOS intake, so I'll have to settle for just the VC when it becomes available.
