I've never heard of anything like that being done on a passenger vehicle, even on exotics. If you or someone find out about some crazed Dr. Frankenstein who made this happen, I want to know every single detail about it. From what little knowledge I have on mechanics and civic engines, I can't imagine that would be possible. That's an ignorant guess though.

yeah, its a roots style (eaton m45), replaces the intake manifold by bolting straight to the engine and the intake connects to the other end. The only hard parts were that the fuel line needed to be tapped into for the 5th injector, dip stick needed to be moved and the ECU was kind of a bitch. There is a special tool that was needed to disconnect the fuel line from the fuel rail which we didnt have, but we used like 4 or 5 tiny screwdrivers and finally popped it off.
hey polo u back in wpb or u overseas still?
nope, still in Italy, but like I said... im done in August and I'll be back in the states. Im coming home to WPB in April for some vacation time.
hey, my uncle used to own a midas. would he know how to do it? or would he know enough to help me?
Sure if he has alot of general knowledge under the hood.
