Message	So for those that dont know (or have been living under a rock...), there is a legit AMS compnay out there. They started out as an DSM tuning company and made a big name for themselves with the Evo and now the GTR with their Alpha packages. Anyways, this is a solid model of their intake manifold prototype. I thought this was a really cool design and I wish there was something like this for our cars. I would think it would make intake pulls easier, along with installing top feed injectors and things like that. AMS Performance intake manifold I know the Z had extensive intake tuning done, resulting in the longer intake runner length. But, would a better designed collector result in a runner length change? I would think so, but I know very little about intake manifold tuning/design. So who has a 3D printer that they can play with? Even if not for production, I would love to see a mockup of something like this on the 300zx.
