Looks awesome!! Can't wait to see some videos on this when you get it all together 😎 Are you planning on lowering the drivetrain at all for a lower center of gravity?

Not on the Fiero. I'm working on getting an Exocet chassis and for it I will definatelly put this engine as low as possible but for this Fiero it is not worth it. I will start the engine with the tunnel ram manifold and once broken in, dialed and dynoed I will change to this intake to have solid comparisons.

Finally finished the last touches on the TR6 "Thunder" intake I designed for the engine in the car now. Now is off to the dyno with the TR5 intake to get data and some basic tuning before the "Thunder" is installed and optimized!

I noticed that with the intake on the car now, when driving it hard with sustained full throttle the intake gets very cold regardless of the temperature outside. Conversely the fuel rails get hot because of their location. So instead of just running long fuel lines that were going to be exposed to the raising heat of the headers which is why the fuel rails get hot now, I opted to add those side fuel rails to keep the fuel cool.
