There really is no advantage, just more complexity, but it does add a coolness factor for sure

More shots
These are examples of the quality.

The triple is for a 911.

90 degree is a formula Ford

Great trip and tons of technical details we talked about.
Well worth the trip we did to visit AT Power.
Fantastic products and quality.

Note to all: The quality of their stuff is a solid 10. Also, the extension tubes and stacks are available in several lengths, so easy to package.

Wow those looks sick! What secures the bottle fly valve in its slot? Just press fit?

Machined fit on either side.

They are absolutely Phenomenal pieces.

The precision and quality is on Par with Fidelity Machine and Mold.

Check out their videos of various 911’s.

The flow is comparable to a completely open pipe.

I mean it's no Lindsey Racing intake manifold, but pretty nice nonetheless. ;)

We're definitely not in Kansas anymore. Super cool project. Thanks for sharing the drool-worthy pictures!

Did you pull the trigger, and will you make your own plenum? Not to spend your money, but a carbon fiber plenum would top that off nicely. :shifty: Can't wait to watch the project develop!

Even the 3D printing is spectacular...

Plenum will be built by Fidelity. Same quality work and local plus I get a great deal😎

Fidelity can make curved intake runners out of aluminum that taper like the 3D pieces as well.

There is a 8 week lead time for orders. Part of the reason for the visit was to get more technical information to help with my design choices.

Michael’s technical input and 3D runners he gave me is greatly appreciated.
