<a href="/features/130_0809_individual_throttle_bodies_castrol_syntec/index.html">See how Bisimoto's progress is coming along and check out the unique individual throttle body setup.</a><p>Another very exciting part of the manifold design is the throttle plates, which open on a vertical axis (left to right) configuration instead of on a horizontal axis (up and down). As air flows into the velocity stack down the throat of the throttle bodies and into the intake port, the intake port splits into each valve. Air, particularly at higher velocities, does not like to change flow configuration. In order to keep efficiency up, splitting the air latitudinally with the throttle plates, and then longitudinally (due to the intake port split) in a rapid sense is a big no-no. The new Kinsler manifold allows us to split the air in one configuration to mimic and optimize smooth flow into the port, and ultimately to each intake valve. The rolled intake stacks were designed using the latest computerized fluid dynamics software, and the runners have properly engineered tapers to improve intake charge velocity. It was made especially for Super Street for this competition, so it's a one-off I know will work very well when it comes to making power. Based upon our research data, we could easily gain 80 whp over a stock intake manifold! That's how restrictive the factory intake manifold is. Even the injectors were custom-made in "Syntec green," so we're sure to earn some points there. The new manifold looks so great, I am planning to also install one on my own race car, and convince Kinsler Fuel Injection to put it in production!</p>
