Well great...snapped the cutter I was using with the wrong settings

Back in action on Tuesday I guess, dammit

It would be awesome if you can finish before the end of the month

. Finishing up my build at the of the month and would rather not have to mess with the intake after I get everything back together. Already have the 2 gaskets.
Hope you had an awesome Christmas and New Years

Not to pee in your cheerios or anything but I hope you meant to say 2 (sets) of gaskets?! You need a total of 4 gaskets for the manifold. If you ordered the throttle body spacer then you need 2 for that for a total of 6.

I might have to count everything now:, I got a gasket overhual kit and then ordered another gasket for the manifold. I just wanted the intake spacers. Crazyness

Gotta love on line tracking. We are amazed how many packages via any shipper get delayed, mis-routed, lost, or damaged. But hay at least we can see their mess ups.

USPS lost two $1850.00 (each)superchargers that were shipped to me a few years back. After showing them pictures of these UNIQUE superchargers they basicly said "We don't care." and about a year later they showed up on the USPS we lost $hi+ auction!

If it is an expencive or unique product I go with FedEx or UPS.
At least THEY seem to care and have Much better tracking.

Cool...replacement shipment of cutting tools should be here Monday or Tuesday and I can get back to work on these things.

These look useful?

Note these are a lower grade phenolic material I picked up to do some test cuts with, but I think I'll put them on my car since they turned out pretty well.

Looks GREAT!

Those look great.

Would porting be beneficial based on the first picture?

I don't know... but if you have a dremel and a sanding drum (and a dust mask), you would be able to port them pretty easily to your liking. The material is fairly easy to sand into shape.

Should be cutting the first customer set today

I took my IM/TB off yesterday. It is not too terrible an experience. I took some pictures and will make a howto (unless one already exists?) I think it was about 90 minutes or so, but there was a lot of time trying to figure out what/where to disconnect. Could probably do it in about 30 minutes if I did it again.

Plus it will be a ton easier to change out my coils this way

Still have 2 more discounted sets available...now's your chance

Next two sets can take $10 off the price for either option 1 or 2 only.

Option 1:
Intake manifold spacers only, one set= two pieces, with a set of 14 extended bolts, the price will be $99 shipped.

Option 2:
Set of two intake spacers, plus throttle body spacer, plus 14 extended bolts for intake and 6 for the throttle body. $125 shipped.

Option 3:
Throttle body spacer only plus 6 extended bolts $35
