The air is cooler down under the manifold than on top, there is just no room to put them any where else.

The intake temps are sub 100f.

Got some new aeroflow filters today and it makes it really stealthy and leaves enough room for the new ad engineering catch can that's coming and I get get rid of the bms and mishimoto ones.

I reckon after you do it black it will suit it better....
Obviously personal preference.

Keep up the good work

Its getting a dissasipation black coating as soon as i finish testing and all the mods are done

Until then it can stay silver

Still a lot of testing, tuning and modding to be done

So after very extensive searching we where able to procure the last 1.25d tight radius bends available in alloy

No one makes them anymore as they brake more than they make.

Still not tight enough for our BMW's, so donuts and all those welds will have to stay.

There is just no room to make it from any other material, without costing a fortune.

So what we are going to do is coat it in black dissipation coating to make it look better
and retain the weld strength.

We could polish out the welds but there is no way of guaranteeing it wont crack.

The Fab Factory manufactures them in the US.
Be prepared for a huge spend plus freight, duty and GST.

You can purchase direct or JD75 has a few for sale.
