Check this out, our new friend German sent me these pics to upload. They include a CF intake and some other interesting mods!

Thanks German!


















Thanks German! I just thought this needed a new thread.

Wow! That is some intake. And that must be the longest oil fill neck I've ever seen. Is that from Giraffe Engineering?

Very interesting project German.

I was thinking the same thing. Better not try to fill it with the front of the car up on ramps or anything, it would never go down that neck!

Very cool intake though, isn't it? I've never seen anything like it.

No problem man, send all the pics you want. I love engine pics, especially when it's something unique like that.

in the photos dont appeared but when the intake is mounting there are two tubes who caught the air just front the radiator, i dont need a flowmeter i have a map sensor,so the tubes can go independent.

I would be concerned about vibration damage to the long oil filler neck - might need some sort of support near its end.

The intake manifold is the same as Mark Anderson runs, made by Phil Threshie.
Good luck with it.

I'd heard about it but never seen it. Probably cost more than my whole car.

I have heard some scary things about them.....

And I really think it would be better with a balance pipe.

did that intake come from phil threshy's design? I know someone had the tooling and the stuff, OBVIOUSLY works! (aka joe fan and mark anderson intakes)
Or, is this another design.
I do like that oil filler . funny. I dont recall how Mark and Joe did theirs.

more pics!!

thanks for posting

just take it off and fill it via the breathers on the cam covers?

turn the stock filler area into a large seperator.
