No question that's the best option for our cars!!! The primary benefits comes from the individual throttles per cylinder. They're almost as big individually as the single throttle-body on the 951. I'm thinking a flat-slide TB would be an easier mechanism to make and you don't have to worry about synchronization either. A single slide with four holes to cover/open all four runners simultaneously... Hmmm.... damn you guys! I've got enough on my plate as it is! <img src="graemlins/cussing.gif" border="0" alt="[grrrrrrr]" /> <img src="graemlins/cussing.gif" border="0" alt="[grrrrrrr]" />

The Millege intake is trick for sure, and I would be that there's some HP to be found with it.
The problem with installing one on a street car is that you have to remove the oil filler/seperator setup. No FIT!
I've got an intake that I was going to sell, if anybody is interested ... $500 + shipping.
Will bolt on to the 951 head and accepts the 951 TPS.
You will need throttle linkage, and to cut down/re-run oil filler.
Also you would need a vacume resovior for the brakes (common with n/a V8 muscle cars with big cams).
Let me know if you're interested.

just the manifold and the the throttle plates...and the carbon airbox...and you bet your a__ it can cost 4500 bux...he cant build more than a few a year, and the tooling costs for the castings and prepreg work for the carbon are very high.
