chuck - yes im considering staged injection on this manifold Smile its apparently worth just a few ft/lbs in the upper rpm's

dave - im not convinced that the 'pressure drop' hypothesis is the correct method of determining intake assemblies. infact im pretty bluntly against the whole idea. the whole history of head porting and such seems to have been built around the rubric of "hog it out until it flows like a big steel pipe" - and in the end you have very little pressure drop, and the head flows like haides.

however we all know that abs flow figures mean very little these days, and its all about the quality of the flow, the velocities, swirl, and the harmonics that are present in a real operating engine.

perhaps for a 'single rpm use only' engine, yes, 9000rpm and ports and throtles that just flow big numbers might be adequate. i suspect that is the story with that 400ps 2jzge w/ 55mm throttles. looking at the intake and given that size throtte, i doubt itd do much other than be a whingy, useless, undrivable engine until the whole lot hit 9000rpm, and just screamed its tits off.

i dont want that Laughing

from everything ive calculated, i *think* ive got my port X area sorted correctly, and that is supportive of the idea of a 45mm throttle (no i didnt start out trying to justify the throttles i have, i honestly started from scratch!). it may not be the 'ultimate' in terms of peak power and abs flow capability, but, fucking engines, compromises a plenty.

i know that a dyno and several goes with different setups is the final solution. but im sure you can understand the pursuit to get somthing 'close to right' in the first instance (even if it all turns out to be shit, and i end up starting from scratch following dyno session #1)

if nothing else, learning the maths id fun hehehe

and yeah - thanks to all who have contributed so far (even if i didnt directly address your points.) ive read this all a few times over the last day or so, and have just been chewing on it before replying. your imput is appreciated - its hard to muster good discussion on stuf like this.

oh - also, check here for further discussion:
