Default CUSTOM INTAKE for TPI

I have possibilities to made custom intake. I was thinking only made bigger runners. But why only runners? :smash:
I know guys that can made everything from stainless steel and stainless steel pipes.
That guys can made all intake as superram.
Only one thing I need is diameters of that intake, runners length and diameters. They have all necessary machinery and has outstanding quality.
Next they can mill intake manifold too for better breathing (on numeric machines)
Do you help me?
Scorp? Another forum guys?

Copy-save the list MrNuke posted.I needed that list,thanks!
:D

Hey Jerry,
Do you guys use the metric math over there?
Anyway,sounds great you can have someone custom make you what you need.Who knows,maybe youll invent something or make something for the intake that will help make more power then what the tuners already sell,and for alot less.
:)

My idea was a SR looking intake with much shorter runners. Basically a cross ram with a plenum on top.

Can those guys make that?

Basically this

With straight runners that go into a big plenum on top.
