I know it's not pretty. Using a dremel to merge the short and long runners while increasing the size of the plenum.

Looking good. Whats the purpose of that valve and the entire machanism on the right side?
Is that for the cruise control or choke? Ive seen that valve on v6 8g galants but have no idea what it does.
It is the cruise control, I haven't had the chance to remove it yet.Quote:

Does it bolt up?
if so... I'm doing it next weekend.
i don't mind porting the manifold to match the gasket.
I don't even care about the iac compadability since i don't have an iac or fiav anyways.
deleted those a looooooong time ago.

It will bolt up(take a look at the first pic) but I will need an adapter/spacer for the TB to flow as evenly as possible to the IM, since the TB is 70mm @ inlet/outlet but 65mm @ the blade. I'll probably make the adapter from grade xx garolite.

i'd really like to see what your motor is putting down on a dyno.
that and i don't think i've ever seen a pic of your car.
^x2 pics or ban!
LOL. In due time. Well, I'm about four hours away from my car(it is in storage) and I forgot to snap some pictures of it when I was down there two weeks ago. I won't swap the cyclone IM/diamante TB setup until I get the RVR ecu eprom issue work out. But the last photos I have of the exterior of the car before I had it tow to the shop for the head swap.Quote:

looking clean
Grrr none of your pics work and I wanna see
Thanks. It's coming together, I'm coming close to closing on a home so this thing maybe push back soon weeks/months. But once I'm finish, this will be some type of write-up/how-to. But honestly, if I'm strap for cash I might sell it along with the socketed RVR ECU.
Update: Getting a flange made to be weld on the cyclone plenum, and finish the merger of the runners in the plenum. BTW, it would be easier for me to just buy an Evo 8-9 TB and be done with it a long time ago.
