Re:Ben Herr manifold 1 Month, 3 Weeks ago  
Hey Musky,
Excuse my ignorance but what is RSP? I was looking for a Nemesis but found out they wont be making any more. Is the Ben Herr the same/similar? Are they worth the effort?
Thanks,
Steve

It's the same principal. You'll have to decide if it's worth it. I was just letting people know. Click on Delphi watch in the main menu on the start page. The Road Star Project is listed in there.

I got to be missing something, I don't see no Delphi to click on, so I search and come up with a RS forum, still no Manifold box loading and I search there and it bring me back here. Is this a VISTA problem??????

Re:Ben Herr manifold 1 Month, 3 Weeks ago  
The dealer contacted these people (Him) last week, and this guy is doing one up for my 07 and sending it out, so, we are about to see if an aluminum Intake will solve my 13K mile intake leak.

If that don't work, 100% of the load is on a intake Curt modified and so graciously sent me in a quick manner. (Pressure is on Curt)

Dealer has had like 4 factory style on so far and wants to try something different. (Other than rubber) Thinking for some reason I am losing a seal when it heats up. Figures the solid aluminum one might solve that and he's eating the cost of it so. I'll take it.

Am I 1st to have one on for other than cosmetic reasons? On an 07 that is.

Lots of people run them but I don't think many has bought one for cosmetic reasons. Unless you've taken your fuel pump off and haven't put anything in it's place you can't see it.

Re:Ben Herr manifold 1 Month, 3 Weeks ago  
Some local guy who builds customs said a lot of people are disappointed in the appearance of the intake, cosmetically, Our response was same as yours, like ok......... It's a PITA to get to as it is. And not so sure i would want to relocate the fuel pump. It's tour and utility to me. Ahh with a splash to cool stuff.

Anyone running one have anything to say either way about what they notice about it, set up, manner etc.?

Can't blame Ben for the custom builder or others not ordering the right finish if that's important to them. He offers hand polished, chrome, and powder coated too.
