Looks good Patrick, nice work by Paul. There are always packaging constraints when dealing with a 944 engine bay. See you at SMP.

66mm. We had that already and didn't want to go massively bigger anyway.

It is almost equal length twin-scroll manifold (wastegate located where washer bottle used to be) and ceramic coated with Ceracote C105 titanium.

but how will you fill the oil

as far as intakes go...this is a "Sid special"...maybe its not pretty but it should work pretty well. short runners and big box, i have no concerns for flow distribution. box is about 17" x 3" x 5" if i remember correctly...about 4 liters internal volume.

Happy for anyone to post pics in here. Want it to be a reference thread. Also include before and after dyno charts if available. Hopefully I can do this tomorrow.

I like the reverse flow intercooler Spencer, whole setup looks great! You need to get video and dyno charts now.

Other than the plenum style, our intakes look very similar Pat.

Don't have the charts yet. Soon. But we were able to make some small gains down low and flatten out the top. Looks like we're making the same power at about 3psi less. Wound it up to 26psi and made 548whp on a conservative dyno. No sign of coolant leak either which was very pleasing from the new gasket/ring setup!
