As for the tuning of the manifolds yes, the programs I am using do crap out pretty much everything and now that I have this sound wave one it does show compression and decompression of the waves. The mach numbers and viscosity results can only do so much because CFD does not take into account of reversal of flow or blockage of flow. It is more designed towards straight flow, going in one way and out another. That is why I needed the sound wave stuff.
About making me enough money to make it worthwhile I wont. I never planned to nor think I will. I started the project for my own cars and once it became apparent that to use some sort of molding to make it happen because sheetmetal most likely wont work out for the final design I decided I my as well sell it at near my cost if anyone would want it. Im not in the business of designing and manufacturing. I like to make things that work well for myself... it just happens that some other people might also  |
Groovy. We could use more people like you in the performance aftermarket scene.
