Re: SMIM Showdown! Lets figure this out once and for all!
I agree. I think we should use a car that is represenative of the "average dsmer's" goals. Seems like most people shoot for the 400 mark from what I read. So I guess I would say it should be a car of no more than 500whp, and somthing that is relaible. Not going to have issues half way through testing.
And I agree that either a AEM or DSMlink is crutial. We need to be able to adjust each manifolds tune, so we can insure that each i tested at the same AFR and Knock count.
I'd volunteer my car, but im a long way from putting it back together, and now that I found out I owe Obamma Yo-mamma money on my taxes, progress is deffinatly going to slow.

Re: SMIM Showdown! Lets figure this out once and for all!
Then pull her off! I've got 2 more coming from the link forums. A jmf street, and a driven innovations one. Never heard of that one.
Responce over there pretty positive.

Re: SMIM Showdown! Lets figure this out once and for all!
To bad you are so far away. I would love to test my manifold against any of the previous mentioned Intake mani's.
If the worlds fastest Evo runs a unmodified Forrester. I would love to see what my ported and polished Forrester flows.

Re: SMIM Showdown! Lets figure this out once and for all!
I would also like him to do another test. I have the NEW magnus design and want to see how it compares.

Re: SMIM Showdown! Lets figure this out once and for all!
Im still here. Contacting me via email is usually best (greg@prokartindoor.com), but this works too.
Sorry I haven't updated anybody in a while! This economy has forced me to hold up on a few things, which included spending time on SMIM's that I could otherwise spend on making money. Well, trying to atleast!
In short, I worked with a local place to design a new SMIM. It is amazing! My car has NEVER ran so smoothly. It out flowed everything before it, and in my humble opinion, looks amazing! Like I said, the prototype is currently on my car. We planned on dyno testing it in September, But I was running 115% duty cycles at 25psi! With a turbo that is pretty dormant below 20, this wans't a good thing. So I parked the car until I could invest into either a full blown setup or bosch 044 and some new injectors. Hopefully, this spring I can get back on track.
If anybody is SERIOUS about wanting more information and pricing on one of these, please let me know. These will be made to order, and would probably take 3-4 weeks to get. So far, the plan is to sell the design to somebody else because the guy who I designed this with doesn't have the time in his shop to deal with sales and service. Hes a very small shop, and is extremely busy. But until I get around to dyno testing this, thats on hold too.
If people out there still want things tested, Im more than willing. All you need to do is drop them off to me, and ill have them ready to be picked back up in less than 48 hours!

Re: SMIM Showdown! Lets figure this out once and for all!
Looking goood! I assume you sold the jmf? Care to re-post the findings again? It was a pleasure talking with you throughout the process for this.
btw, you still working at pro-kart?

Re: SMIM Showdown! Lets figure this out once and for all!
Yeah, still at ProKART!
I sold the JMF on the link forum. Somebody in Cali if I remember right. I kept some of the NOS setup, and got some new parts too and put it in. First time I tried to use it, we found out one of the nozzles was cracked. Scarred the crap out of me!
I believe the findings are all still up on the site! We had a server issue here a few months ago, so It is possible that its gone. Ill look into it. Ifnot, I have it saved here as well.

Re: SMIM Showdown! Lets figure this out once and for all!
Although I do not have the test sheet in front of me, I believe it was 460cfm per runner, with less than a 2 cfm difference best to worst.
I still have the web page saved for the SMIM testing. Appareantly, our webmaster deleted everything and deleted my password as well. I was using ProKART's server to do it. If somebody has a suggestion to get things up again, please let me know

Yup, results are gone, if you could find a way to re-post them that would be awesome!

Re: SMIM Showdown! Lets figure this out once and for all!
Swifty asked me to re-post the test data. This is the latest version I still had on my hard drive, as i have gotten a new computer since then (Thank God)
