[QUOTE="rossypho, post: 398308, member: 7139"] ok to update the idea on the custome SC intake manifold idea. the idea is to do like the ls1 guys would do. make flangs from the intake ports on the heads, make a base and then add a place for the air to collect and into each flange to give each cyclinder air. [ATTACH=full]91989[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]91990[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]91991[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]91992[/ATTACH] heres how the air gets pushed down [ATTACH=full]91993[/ATTACH] as you noice these set up the space take up from the top of the block witch isnt capable on the 6.0 due to the fact there are other compontans located right here. so my idea is to make the flanges raised and then build my "space" above the block. this in turn will raise the hight of the SC and in turn make the hood not work, thats ok ill probably get a ram air hood. somthing a little more like this. [IMG]http://www.blowerdriveservice.com/images/ls1-thumb.jpg[/IMG] i did find this intake for the 6.0 witch is a much more idea on how high the unit has to be but not have as much of space for air to collect [IMG]http://www.alligatorperformance.com/userfiles/image/Elite%20Zmax%20Tunnel%20Ram%20Intake%20Manifold.JPG[/IMG] the idea is to install somethign like this for the twins [ATTACH=full]91994[/ATTACH] if i make a butterfly valve that will keep it closed untill the turbos hit then the supercharger wont feed ait into the back side of the turbos. and only opens the valve when the turbos produce boost. this should also help in adding the bypass vlave on the supercahrger unit again this is all in theory i am still looking into a lot of forums and trying to find out more about the SC bypass and how turbos supercahrged systems work along with the intake manifold, this is the rought i am aiming for and the only way i see it working. i might just try a supercharger for now to see how it work (without the bypass activated). say a 408ci gto with a 4.0 whipple said it made 14psi at 2000 rom and 27psi at 4000rpm. this would inable me to run the bypass and also not max out a whipple 4.0 in psi or i belive in wheel rpm spinning. but that also says my pully is the same size. if i get it to work without the turbos i can still modify the custome intake to accept the turbos but dont know if it will work without pushing air back into the SC. my only hope is the SC shoudl still spin in bypass just not compress the air making the turbos air not go into the SC making the intake work just fine.
