Extrude Hone a VQ35 Intake Manifold?
I know that there are a few 4th gen guys that Extrude hone thier OEM Manifolds and reported postive gains.
I was just wondering if the same could be said for the VQ35 Intake Manifold.

go for it. It will help but the horsepower per $$$ is bad. Extrude honing a manifold is $600-$800 dollars depending on the manifold.

It looks like a VQ35 fwd manifold and elbow would be $749. It might make 5 or 10 hp, but the price is steep.

After looking at my intake manifold several times and talking w/ some other org members, we may have figured out that the secret sauce manifold may not be so secret anymore.
I will post pictures of mine when i get done with it. Of course i have to get the car running first

Yea i never could figure it out till i looked in my manifold. I then thought about how i remembered reading about people removing the VI rod out of their 2000 vi to increase peak power due to the increase in air volume.

Im pretty sure I know the basis of the modded IM. i just cant find any pics of the inside. I remember Jime posting a thread on the other boards about it was obvious with pics but I cant find it. Does anyone have pics of the inside of the IM they can share?

Also, due to the selfishness of certain .org members, and advice from those exact same people, I won't be posting future mod lists. Just dyno sheets only.
It's a good thing those people are just dealing with the very old stuff.

Pot calling the kettle black. You're the one being selfish by not telling people how you are getting the power you're getting. Even if the secret was out, people would still pay to have their IM modified. Some would do it on their own.
Why do you even post here on the org? You don't share any information. All you seem to do is brag about your dyno sheets and timeslips.

Don't take this the wrong way, but do you really expect people not to do something just because you said not to? IMO there is nothing wrong w/ people spreading the info on SSIM since you will not sell it. I tried on several occassions to buy one from you and you would not sell it to me. I was going to get it one way or another, but it would have been better for you if you had just sold it to me. You honestly cannot get mad at people for doing this themselves when you don't even sell the product to anyone.
It is like you are trying to rub your mods in peoples face. "look what i got and you cant have, na na na na"

If people don't want to share their mod list, they don't have to. last time I checked, there weren't any forum rules that stated this. There are plenty of pioneers on the org that won't share anything because we have a ton of leeches.
