Been waiting for this but time to give up, any other options? Looking for a clean manifold without all the OEM fittings/holes.

GTR world must really be that much better

What are you waiting for, it's available to purchase. No other manifold on the market has a back to back comparison available. I plan on putting this on my car and I could potentially do a back to back, but that will be in the spring.

Looks cool. Id guess less mid range with that intake based on resonance principles (shorter runners). Around a 3% increase in peak power... not sure its worth it.

I'm sure they are just really backed up and super busy. They have moved into a new facility. So I'm sure they are playing catch up.

It also does seem the GTR and FRS/BRZ stuff as of late has been nuts.

Yeah, sounds like it. I´m sure we have a 500hp build ready for the dyno on this forum, if FBM gave that member a manifold for a few dyno runs and numbers it would be done by now. With no extra work for them, just shipping a manifold.

Saw the new building on Facebook; definitely a nice space! I have an FBM intake manifold on the way. I'll try to do back to back testing, but I won't have my car back on the road before Spring (possibly summer).
