My custom Gt3 intake built by Billet Design

I thought everyone would like to see my finished intake for my turbo engine. It began life as a Gt3 intake and evolved into what you see here. All the fabrication work was done by Marco Manzie at Billet Design.

What modes did they have to do to get the GT3 intake to fit?
Also what motor is it going on?

BTW it looks beautiful, lots of detail and care was taken.

Is it plastic or Alu?

The intake has been cut and welded for runner length mods etc. He machined injector blocks to work with a 2 bolt head. The motor is a 3.5 stroker motor with a single turbo

Nice...

I'm surprised that the intake on the GT3 is Alu, I always thought Plastic flowed better. Oh well... wrong again.

When do you plan to have this motor in action?

The intake is smoothed over internally The plenum area on this thing is huge which is great for a turbo motor. It is just a timing deal now to get all the last things bolted on and it is ready to go.

Curious at this budget why you did not go with a full Motec or similar engine management. I see you have the Dizzy still.

Beautiful work!!

Well, I think Eric got a great deal(sponsor?) on an accel gen efi system and that is the custom 911 accel dist. that supports sequential efi, so no crank trigger needed. Good to hear from you Eric, Get this monster on the road!!!

Looks like there are 2 plenums - one on each side?

What model was used to calculate their sizes & placement re runner length?

Not sure if you have ever seen up close or in real life the intake of a GT3/R/RS/RSR

Strokher has had a talented fabricator adapt a throttle body and modify the runners and crossovers to suit.. which look remarkably like the runners on a GT3 RS I know.

The last two places this manifold raced were Le Mans, then Watkins Glen

This one is from Porsche Motorsport..for a supercup engine.. circa 2001

Hey Eric I almost popped for the same intake but Marco being the class act that he is told me that for street applications the 3.2 Carrera intake did the job as did Bob Holcombe for that matter. It does look awesome though.

Huh?

The one in the pic above has single plenum and it is at least 4x the ones on the red induction unit....

I have a JB racing 12 plug distributor on the engine and a crank trigger. That is the old accel dizzy in the motor.

I'm curious about the twin crossovers, why not just one large one? Seems to me like the front crossover will do little but provide volume. Wouldn't as single crossover centered between the end plenums work better?

Yes there are two plenums on the intake. Alot of R&D was taken to adjust the runner length etc to get it where it is at. The dyno will be the final test of what it will do. I have my hopes high on this intake
