d16z6/d15b vtec IM development pt.1



the d16z6 / JDM d15b / ESI (local to the phils) manifold  has some long runners swooping upward to the plenum , since the platform is mostly a commuter effort
and OEM , low rpm driveability prolly was the main concern

downside is, it is quite convoluted as far as flow goes  especially when the engine set up is hotter than stock,

here we do the ff :

cut open the plenum , to be able to port the runners, and slightly flair up the entry
for improved flow , porting the runners from the flange side
and tig welding the plenum shut

picture above :  is of the bare plenum surface and runner entry surface
