Intake plenum and 911 throttle body

Ben,

I wouldn't worry too much about comments concerning patentability or infringement as of yet. I would stay away from cast aluminum, since that is the same materials of construction used by another supplier and may be an integral part of a patent.

The patent holder bears the burden of proof to show that the defendant infringed the patent. The plaintiff must prove infringement by a preponderance of the evidence. This standard means that the greater weight of the evidence must show that the patent is infringed.

If you have concerns or want to take this item from a DIY project and make it a marketable product, go see an attorney familiar with this area of the law.

I am not an attorney, but I am interested in your DIY project and hope to purchase one soon. Best of luck.
