Nice build up! Hey with those 4 barrel setups, do all the butterflies open at the same time, Or are they staged like the stock TB setup? And do all 4 flow into all the runners at once? Or are they separated with 2 flowing into the primary runners and 2 flowing into the secondary runners?

Really nice stuff.

Love it all around and our work spaces look strangely familiar hehe.

It is nice to see that the "drag racing" if we can say guys all stick together and help eachother out thats a big part of what makes these cars fun I think.

yes, The rxparts.com / x-treme rotaries 4 barrel TB does have a progressive operation so that the 2 primary butterflies open before the secondaries improving driveability. as far as I know these are the only 4 barrel TBs on the market that have that feature.

yes, 2 butterflies feed the primaries, and 2 feed the secondaries.

and yes, the NE guys do really stick together and help one another out. it just so happens that most of us are "drag racers", but in reality, all the NYC rotor heads are a small family and we take care of each other.

I heard about the new 4wd dyno coming in and knew that you'd be busy for the holidays. no disapointment here as long as there is a nice saftey cushion between the equipment and my car, I'm good. lol

i'll stop by next monday with some more parts, then i'll be a pain in the *** again.

hope you enjoied your holidays!
