In Reply To	Carbon Fiber custom intake .. posted by Carlos Ramirez on January 09, 2003 at 07:51 PM
Message	Carbon Fiber has MUCH lower thermal conductivity and slightly lower heat capacity than aluminum. So this manifold should help to keep intake temeratures down. It would work even better if the runners leading to the TBs were CF also... that's splitting hairs I guess. Its damn cool the way it is. Looks like an M3 manifold. Not sure about the blue engine scheme on a red car though... haha ----------------------------------------------------------- "I love you all...I love you more than life itself...but you're all fu*king mad" - Ozzy Osbourne "Funk you very much" - George Clinton
