505 Intake Manifold COMPLETED!

[2.0t03speed]

what i did with mine is that i looped a line from the in and out on the sensor to keep anything from getting in the sensors and keeping it in one closed loop if you will.

 

[2.0t03speed]

and yes you have to keep the sensors plugged in or you will throw a cel

Im going to ballpark it now since rich told me this new plenum design is making the cost go up a little bit im going to say the cost is going to be around 700 or possibly a little over.

Not sure exactly why the cost is going to go up...We are talking about a whopping addition of 6" of welding and a new small Cut section...What is that thing...2''x 4''?

But whetever......I dont make the pricing.

If the price goes up every time something is changed..then good lord..we never will know where it will stop.

Either way..I am still in..I just don't see any amount of work required or material needed to justify a serious increase in pricing for the small change that was made.

But OK. (shady)

lol too bad i dont make the prices, 25 bucks shipped to my door!!!!

im not saying its going to be a serious increase but there is going to be some increase. these arent being produced on a massive level its a small group buy so every little thing counts. Also if you look the entire plenum has changed basically the taper up top and the added angle of the TB. your going from 4 cuts to 6 cuts the tiny extra piece up top and the additional welds im not saying it going up some astronomical ammount im just saying dont be suprised if it a extra 20 dollars or so.

so it should still be around 600 then since Rich originally wanted it under 600 or in around there.. i dont think it will hit 700 or over... this is not what Rich would have wanted it to be at.

either way, i dont have a problem paying that for this piece of art. I went to art school so i appreciate it haha

It's not going to be a serious increase, but I have to factor in everything that is being done to make these. The first plenum was basically just a rectangular sheet, with 2 bends in it. That was cheap and easy to do so the cost for it was very low. Now the plenum will have 4 bends and a bunch of cuts to make it all in one piece. I don't expect more than a ~20 dollar increase, but I do not have the final price for the new plenum tops yet so I don't know exactly how much it has to go up.
