awesome pics - looks like there is a lot of restriction in that lower intake - would a Cobra R intake fit? I think I remember seing a pic where all 8 inlets are trumpets inside a big casing. BMW do something like that on the M5 I believe (and that company seems to know a thing or two about tuning stock engines) - If I could I'd throw the stock intake out and try to fab something a bit freer flowing (though if you lose that longer intake I guess you'll potentially lose that nice bottom end torque we get). I don't think the polishing makes much difference - the air-flow turbulence could even benefit a little with combustion from unpolished intakes, but the porting has gotta help. I'm curious about the potential power gains however as they are essentially free - dyno results please!!!!!
