Not to bring up a zombie thread, but how are you lucky SOBs enjoying the mod?
And to Jason, is it still possible to get one of these bad boys?
Thanks!

Haven't installed mine yet as I have some work to do first, but I believe Jason is still selling them

Actually, I haven't officially started selling them yet. Hopefully available for purchase very soon.

Work out the coupler situation first Jason. Mine gave me a goddam heart attack this morning when it popped off when getting on the highway those bolts are a pain in the ass to loosen and tighten.

It seems I'm trying to find a magic hose clamp that doesn't exist, or at least I haven't found it yet. That's really the only thing holding me up I think.

LOL, I think what you've got is fine but maybe add an extra layer of piece of mind Jason. My experience was clearly from them not being tight enough. I forget the name but there's a self tightening clip you can add to the nuts. Being lock nuts they shouldn't loosen anyway but the amount of pressure and vibration that coupler is seeing may be something to look into.

I don't want to sell something half assed, that looks like cobbled together crap...


Ugly... But it works


Preview of "most exceptional"

We've essentially machined an exact copy of the snout of the stock throttle body so this piece (seen unfinished, next to the tb) will snap into the factory tube just like the throttle body would as stock. The back side of the pice will be machined smooth with a barbed end to take a coupler and single clamp.

You need to try some of these clamps,(a little easier and more positive clamping). They also have other coupler options.

Here;s just one place to get them.

Keep up the great R&D

Going to be attempting a redesign of the tube. Not sure why I didn't think of it before, it was just a "DUH" moment that came to me on Monday... Parts showing up this week. Should fix my clamping woes if it works.
