the design "hard part that is already done" is still for another motor. now "IF" you can cut off the runners, and the length added is right for our motors, and matches the internal dimensions and it works out, that would be something. maybe find a CAD file of this, and virtually do the cut and chop job and see if it is even able to be "correct" for a 32v. for sure won't fit a 16...

why do you say the 16valve is a no go? due to the shape? the shape looks like the S4 runners, no? i wonder how close in size.
the challenge is cutting them off and whats left, either connecting to the short manifold of what carl has made , or something else , maybe 968 manifold?
then, seeing if you can spread them out by about 1/2" each and spread the side to side spacing by about 1-1.5 " as well.

The Dynojet we've been using in Green Bay for the past 10+ years is a steady state AWD unit with twin eddy current brakes.

Then you need to test them in the real world.

im thinking of buying it.. found another newer one for cheaper too.

Cut off the top piece, separate all the runners so that they fit on the 928 heads, weld up the gaps, modify the top as needed (wider or longer), weld it back on. Maybe you need two of them to make the top longer/wider and get 8 individual runners (if the runners are attached to each other...you could harvest some from each manifold.)
Those tapered rectangular runners are awesome...it certainly should flow crazy amounts of air!

without seeing it plopped on top of one of our engines, i would say the legs would be uber funky to do for a 16v. grab one up and lets get to work!, see how she fits.

Probably not the best thing....

those runners do look pretty nice though.. It just keeps calling me to buy it and hack off its legs!

now we are talking! so, welding up a tube to these might be the best way.
why would it be any more funky on the S4. isnt the spacing still wide like the S4?
