Default custom intake mani fab in progress! :) pics

so i really HATE the 89-93 B16A/B17A1/B18A1 intake manifold...its homo...so i finally got around to doing something about it... i cut the ****** up



just after welding the base plate on, and after some rough grinding. still needs a little work... it will be smooth when its done...


lookin good


my 61mm throttle body a little shinny was a little corroded and rusty. so i hit it with some grinder buffing/scuffing pads...


the intake for Aaron/rabbitshit's mani for his 2.0l 16v bunny... more on this later


Aaron showing off his tigging skills... i cant weld...but i will probly try a hand at it before we finish, so i can say i made it


the machine


like i said not finished, still needs...well lots of work but hopefully we can make some progress on it tomarrow so i can get it on before the dyno...
