Skunk2 intake manifold
#11
Hopefully they actually follow through this time. They've been saying a s2000 intake would be for sale since 2012. Would be awesome to see another affordable intake option like the Fullblown intake manifold just not ugly like the FBM.

Thanks, I already picked up a DBW intake a few months back, that's what I took the measurements off of. I think I've got a pretty good design worked out, just need to find some time to actually build it.

Also, I think the runner length on the inline pro, and especially the FBM is way too short, it looks like around a 3" runner length, so you effectively get no resonance until you'r like in the 20,000 rpm range. These are fine for boosted engines, but I think you'd loose significant power on a NA engine.
To get a good 3'rd and 4th harmonic resonance pulse in practical RPM range (5500-8000), you need an intake tube length of 13", from valve head to opening, which the factory intake is close. Only problems are the tubes are uneven length, plenum is a little small.

Do you think they are aiming to make power on a stock S2000 setup or will be more for highly modified NA / boost setups ?

There's some pics on their blog, looks exactly like the K series. Not surprising, as K and F22C are essentially interchangeable, just the bolt locations are a bit different.
From some guesstimating based on their pics and relative distances to other things in their pics, I'm guessing the intake runners are about the same length as stock.
The plenum is about a perfect design. Not sure but the tube diameters are on the large size, might reduce velocity which might reduce midrange power.
