Tiny project - refurbing the m3 CF intake mani

[halik]

Got it as a used/discontinued product with some cracking in the ITB runners and what not. Little bit of epoxy and sanding fixed it right up, plus some paint and wetsand to get fun smooth flow.

Also I've read somewhere these things tend to get heatsoaked, so I went nuts with reflect-a-gold tape. Looks sweet IMO.


I've got more thermal insulation for the intake part of the mani and a 90mm velocity stack on the way from some auto place in england. Apparently finding things like that in non-stupid/metric sizing is impossible in con-US.

Oooooo pretty! What's this look like bolted on? I'm having trouble envisionng it. This s an aftermarket piece?

Very nice. That gold foil works very very well (especially the thin versions).
