Here's a quick iPhone video of the monster smokin' up the streets: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTttFKHOyTs
There was no time to take the car to a dyno as the client was going drag racing later that evening. We will have the numbers soon.

Thanks for sharing the pics. Are those Thermalnators pliable or stiff like phenolic?
I think VD designed that "Y" for the shallower MB throttle body. In the photo it looks really close to the firewall.
Nice to see that there are some shops on the East Coast who are specializing in the MB.
Let's here the details on how the race went down!

Nice work!
Wouldn't that Y work better if it didnt slam both air streams head on, but curve them towards the throttle?

That y pipe was part of a 82mm kit that the client wanted but we are developing in-house one to address that problem that you mentioned.
