There's data on my website to back my claims.
Also wait a few days and I'll have a short video which shows how much more efficient the piece is.
I'm working on it right now. Should be up towards the end of the week.

Wow, I must be slow today, I just put it together, PPBON= PEDRO

Hey, Iv'e gotta give you a big shout out for all your help and your great site. Your next project should be how to "DIY" easily in about 30 minutes replace my IMS bearing!!(with only 1 wrench)

Sorry if I offended you by bringing up the vornado(not comparing it to). I too am interested in increasing hp at any "cost effective" way I can.

PS. You must have little itty bitty hands cause I couldn't get the ignition switch done your way. I had to take the side panel and vent off. It was actually "cake" after that!!

All I know is that it is 650$ cheaper than a ipd plenum or rss plenum, what ever you want to call it. It is the same thing with factory parts and I think better because the abs plastic will not hold heat like a metal piece will. There are some real nice midrange gains on the ipd piece. I am not pushing ipd but the results seem great. I was hesitant from there price but I think for 260 I can manage. My .02

I just got off the phone with pedro's garage and I may have to pick one of these up for my 3.4 I will dyno it before and after. Gimme a week or so and it will be done.

This is similar to the intake manifold "turtles" that became popular on the Mopar Magnum engines. Basically, a small pyramid bolted to the flat bottom of the intake manifold to help direct air towards the runners. Multiple designs are offered based on RPM range.
These have been independantly proven to add a couple hp.

I'll second that. It basically allows a stock plenum to do what the IPD one does. That said, I have an IPD with a 3.4 throttle body bolted onto my 2.5->2.9 and I do think that it made a difference, but Pedro's solution looks just as good (and cheaper).
