So the point is that even on a 2.5L the UIM may be flow limiting factor along with LIM butterflies..




Thank you for the correction and establishing that the UIM may indeed be a limiting factor.

I didn't call today, but I will tomorrow. I'll try and jot down some of these questions and try to get some answers, too.

Actualy what I meant to say is does it have to be a contour manifold?

I would be in also but.... I live in Ireland. I know there is an Extrude Hone in Shannon (Ireland), when you are talking to them, can you ask if its a possibility that I can get it done here in Ireland?
If so I am so in. I even have my standard UIM in the garage to put back on while I wait for this. Thanks,
Ronan

I don't know about Ireland. It seems like it'd be more work and $$$ to send it over seas when you've got a place right there on your island.

I called today and left a message. Call not yet returned.

Update
I talked to EH today. Here's the skinny:
There is a fellow that is sending his UIM for a "new method" of honing. Something about backflow sumpinerother. The point being, this new method is supposed to bump up the flow by a significant amount. He's expecting something in the 270 cfm range, IIRC (I didn't write it down )
This new method should be setup, performed, and flow tested within a month.

The following prices are the estimated costs for this new method (if it proves to provide more flow):
Normal price - $395
Group buy - ~$330, down to $275 with 20 people.

I was told that an "organizer" should send EH a list of confirmed buyers, have the buyers send EH their UIMs, and once the bulk of the UIMs arrive, they'll setup their machinery to do one UIM after another after another. (Wise business practice, IMO).

Estimated turnaround time: 2-3 weeks to get all the UIMs done.

Questions?
