    Default Downdraft quad throttle body intake?

    Has anyone seen one of these setups for the LS1 or LS2 engine? Has anyone used this? Pros/cons?

    Thanks!

    Looks like a whole lot of "I dunno".

    Default Well, we found one..

    This is an 8-throttle body setup we had made for the LS2 on our 2005 SSR.

    Pros: It sure is pretty!

    Cons: It sure was expensive!

    Anything more scientific will have to wait - hubby still has to fab a few more parts and have it tuned before we can comment on performance. Thought you might enjoy the pretty pictures though.

    Besides looks...did it help performance wise?

    WOW! That looks so retro! Perfect for an SS-R! Nice job!
