It is in process this week, and testing will begin soon.
It should be said that this manifold is not for everyone. If you are on a budget, then there are other ways to make gains besides this manifold. It should be said that this manifold is a gateway to more HP, and not so much a direct cause of it. Most folks, sadly, don't understand what that means. This manifold will only give you, what you put into it. No one can expect massive HP gains with it alone when the rest of the motor is stock. Add a supercharger, cams, and headers, and things will be different.
The differences between the stock manifold and our manifold are apparent. Porting the stock manifold efectively would be a hell of an undertaking and still would solve the root problem, that being the 15 inches of runners. Our runners are only 3.5inches in length, and a plenum volume of approximately 6 liters, so it would stand to reason that our manifold flows tons more.

I would not call 27% increase flow as tons more. All those grain are theoritical not actual grain. Its basically a quarter more flow. I think the community would like to duplicate the test and to validate how you come to the conclussion of a quarter increase in air flow. I think disclosing the method of testing is essential to the community. I personally would like to duplicate the testing and flow numbers.
Budget is one thing.. smart money is another. Besides the money issue, I would imagine down time would be quite long. Since not too many tuner have any experience with Tundra. So most tuners would tune and learn and so on.
