His manifolds are high quality. So are AMM's manifolds.

I was looking at the Indy last night, looked sweet until I read the 8 reviews every one slamming it and saying it was a waste of money. 8 negative out of 8 total is pretty bad.

yeah. the custom intakes usually use the upper runners (ported out) and a welded steel box replacing the lower manifold section lower part of the runners. the Throttle body sits vertically - eliminating the 180 degrees the air has to turn to get into the runners.

It sits vertically stock. Aftermarket ones let the TB sit horizontally.

i meant like the tb itself. to me how it sits is horizontally, but ur right airflow is vertically. srry.

ok well does that one work just as well as AMM's? cuz AMM for all the works wants $550 shipped, so im just curious if they work the same or if AMM's is better.. i would prolly still buy one From Amm just to Support another forum member but im just curious..
