TUNING...yes, you're 100% correct. We NEVER once claimed this to be a "Bolt-ON" style components. This manifold was designed for customer wanting to MAXIMIZE their BOOSTED SET-UPS.

Install ins't to bad especially since it bolts right up without any modifications, just a little time consuming if your working on your back.
As for DYNO numbers our boosted 2AZFE customers can expect a minimum of 15% increase in WHP at low boost an as much as 25% on high boost applications. The CNC velocity stack runners & extra large aluminum plentum are the perfect combo for any forced induction application.
As for our NA customers they can expect anywhere from 18-25 WHP increase with this addition however we are actually getting ready to run several NA compraisons where we believe customer will be able to squezze even more power out of it with their NA 2AZFE's. I'll keep everyone posted as details become available.

Something does not add up. you say MINIMUM of 15% increase in whp on low boost, and then say 8-12 whp for 8-12 psi. If my calculations are correct 15% of 300 whp(which you say your kits are capable of on 8psi) that is a gain of 45 whp. Not trying to start an argument, but I do not want Scion owners dissappointed when they drop 700$ on an intake manifold and do not see these type of results.

Depends on what kind of boost numbers you run but from the cars we've been tuning over the past 20 months from our DESCENDANT home in Torrance, CA we seen the following results:
if you run 8-12psi
expect + 8-10WHP
if you run 15-18psi
expect an increase of 20WHP
**you gotta have FUEL SYSTEM...OEM pump & regulator have been replaced at this point.
if you run or want to run 20psi+ OEM manifold doesn't work anymore. Its exploded!
if you run 8-12psi
expect + 8-10WHP
if you run 15-18psi
expect an increase of 20WHP

anyways so you have a dyno sheet of a boosted car and another dyno sheet of the same exact car with same mods and boost level but with just intake manifold put in and a retune. (ofcorse not messing with timing to add a couple more hp's just adjusting AFR)? cause i have yet to see a before and after dyno with just adding the intake mani.

rob you guys have a dyno at yoru facility?
#315
damn thats alot of power just on 8-10 psi? lol that would be great but doubt it. the way i see it the more boost the better for the manifold.
#316
They can PM me if interested.
I dont mind putting a quality product on my car and helping them out at the same time.
Im just not looking to lose anything. I can always just buy it on my own and dont do a before and after

Once again...not true. Dyno sheet are posted with several different set-ups. If you are looking for something specific please let me know and I'll do my best to provide the most accurate info possible.
TUNING...yes, you're 100% correct. We NEVER once claimed this to be a "Bolt-ON" style components. This manifold was designed for customer wanting to MAXIMIZE their BOOSTED SET-UPS.

rob.. please dont go MIA in this thread for another 3 months....
please post your dyno sheets since you have "several set ups"

This thread was started over a year ago. If a shop can't post up a dyno sheet after an entire year, then something isn't right. There's also the issue of Descendant's claims of power gains changing drastically since this product was first revealed.
I'd say this choice is a no-brainer. It's not worth it unless you actually need a more durable replacement for the stock intake manifold.
Rob, if I'm wrong, show us some proof. You told us almost a year ago that you would post dyno results here for us "next week". They're still not here. I don't mean to be rude but a classic phrase comes to mind...
Put up or shut up.

wow...you guys are relentless.
DYNO sheets related to this product have been posted here & there in the thread & on others since we started selling them and if you were honestly in the market for one of our DESCENDANT Intake manifold and were looking for DATA & not just busting my ***** you would have found it by now if you simply looked or picked up the phone to call us.
However, don't worry, I'm currently working on getting them scanned & online so that I can post them here on SL for all of you to see.
