I'm making generalizations. I'm not going into fractional wave tuning and harmonics, there isn't any point here.

yes beyond some serious bench testing and completely OCD tuning and port shaping, you definitely right.

I see you did some digging and figured out it was a Harrop. The Aussies make some wicked LSX stuff.

Problem is it's also wicked expensive. That intake alone is around $5000 right now w/ the weakened US dollar.

The black cover in the picture you posted says "Harrop" on it, so I didn't have to dig too much.

Don't be envious, this thing is going down to the chassis and probably going to have to sand blast it... its pretty bad.

Mr. Fortune you have been paged.
