Show me your facts. Do you have measurements? This setup made 583 whp on 20 psi of boost on 93 octane gas with my last engine build. I don't think I have to worry abour restrictions on the intake.

 

Back on topic, I think hi temp engine enamel or brake paint will be your best bet. I personally would not risk warpage from any baked on finish. You have too much invested in that intake manifold.

Looks amazing btw

 

buffing wheel and compound ? i like the polished look myself ...thats BLING

 

when will u come back to north texas!!! i wish i had seen your car when u were down here

 

custom...

 

I say you have it polished... that wont warp anything and it will look AWESOME. I just had my intake welded/ported/polished and it looks great!

 

very nice!

 

i never meant to say you had a bad setup or that you couldnt make good power with it all im saying is it looks like you have room to do an intake without a neck down (which is an obvious restriction) why not do it? I think anodizing is a good option if your worried about warping and i think it looks better and its certainly more durable... but 400*F shouldn't warp anything as long as the heat it and cool it fairly slowly

 

Not exactly a S2K, but on my turbo mr2 that I used to own, I powder coated a all aluminum aftermarket intake manifold (sheet metal) and had no problems with leaks out of the injector, or anything like that. I did it myself, in a oven right at 400

 

So is the $2900 for just the intake manifold, or ITB's too?

Im guessing just the intake?

Does your ITB have a TPS and what make is it?

Thanks.
