Yep, and it ended up costing me $550 more than the original estimate. $1350 vs $800. 
Builds 80 series where to start! Again.... (1 Viewer)

Hmmm so with Hypertune likely not making a 1FZ manifold. I am kind of looking for other options. Not a lot out there. I did find a cheap one that definitely looks cheap, but I wonder if I could have it reworked a little and then coated?

Doh! Serious?!?

Hell if it's really cheap then use it as a template and have a better one made.

Yeah pretty cheap. The Hypertune would likely be $2200-2400. :-/ But since Hypertune won't even make them I need something else.

The goal is a couple things. Mostly to change the position of the inlet. With a large front mount crossflow intercooler the hot side will be on the passenger side where the turbo is and the cold side will be on the driver's side. Additionally a larger plenum would be ideal. Plenum size is supposed to be 1.48-1.58x the engine displacement. So 4.6Lx 1.53 = 7.38L. Pretty massive.

Well that includes the runner volumes as well.
The 1FZ is a big engine. If you take the length of the head roughly 18" and make the plenum 4" deep and taper from 5-7" in width and 1.5" runners 3.5-4" long you would have roughly 7.5L
Here are some good pics of MS75's custom intake
1FZ vs 2JZ manifold. It is a big beotch. lol

Seriously, there isn't much to the design. A couple of flanges, some runners and a manifold. If you don't get too crazy with the aesthetics it should be a fairly direct custom job.

Yep nothing to it! I will give you $800 lol.

If only I weren't...busy...doing...stuff
I see flanges CNC laser cut. I see the runners CNC bent and cut. I see the intake flanges getting some mill work. I see a CNC lasered box which could be CNC brake'd and then all welded. You have random bosses for mounting s***. In my eyes it would cost more to have my engineer do up the solid works file than it would be to make a handful.

Well quit doing stuff. lol.
The random bosses on the runners are for mounting the injectors I agree not impossible and shouldn't cost $2500 but I don't have the connections obviously. lol.

I wish there was a market for this stuff. This would be a fun project.

The stock intake could maybe be used to retain the flange, but the runners are curved because the bottom and top together make a 180 degree turn, so each section makes a 90 degree. The injectors are sandwiched in the runners by mounting the fuel rail. But they just mount into both the runners and fuel rail with an o-ring. The fuel rail bolts down so that is the retention.
This is a manifold built off the stock lower manifold.

I have that manifold and yes it needs some work. It would need to be cut and smoothed inside for better flow.
ahh....
Where did you get the fuel rail at?
that's all from the MS75 build thread. I was confused by the earlier pic about the fuel rail mounting. This pic was further along.
