Got mine today, pictures just aren't the same as having it in your hands, so far as appreciating the quality of these pieces!
Being a cheap skate, it wasn't easy to fork out the $$, but it is definitely money well spent!

Got mine today. It truly is beautiful. I may just keep it on a shelf or maybe a display motor on a stand. Great packing by the way. Box was a little messed up but there was so much interior padding that I had to dig around till I found it. Thanks again. A great part.really couldn't be happier. If there are any left and you want one, you will not be disappointed. Plus you won't have to wait for them to be manufactured
Thanks for the feed back guys.
Anybody have a pic of one installed? Would someone be able to take a look at the ais and tps wires to see if they would need to be lengthened or not ?
Thanks Adam
I was just comparing your upper plenum to a stock 2-piece intake in my 2nd bedroom (the staging/museum room). I would be surprised if the TPS/AIS wiring would need to be lengthened at all. That is with using the 58mm CNC-ported Chrysler throttle body I also got from lengel (which fits soooo perfect!)
I wish I could post pics of it installed, but I'm not that far yet. However I see no issues regarding the TPS/AIS wiring. The plenum appears to sit a tad bit lower, and the throttle body will face the driver's side, but the overall throttle body is so close to stock... Should plug right in!
Thanks Jeremy!
Any installs yet?

I should be doing mine soon.
Has anyone ever use the Turbos Unleashed fuel rail with this intake?
I know this thread has been pretty quiet lately.
But, I was looking at my plenum and checking the fit of my 52mm TB and found the TPS plug points directly to the plenum. No way the plug will attach.
So, is the 58mm TB different in that regard?
Is there a TPS sensor that works but has a 90 deg plug?
Or is the plug simply installed backwards to make this work?

you just flip the TPS around.

Yup as said, just flip it around. Also as said some of the mini vans had them 90deg. I think they were mostly on the 3.0 mini vans.
I would like to see pics showing where holes has been drilled for the vacuum noses.
There must be enough thickness for tapping and I don't want to make a mistake.
Looking at installing this in the next week.
The cables for the throttle and the trans usually hang on a bracket.
There seems to be no way to hang this bracket...and even if it could,
the angle being 90 degrees off seems to make an issue.
AND of course the question above, holes for vac lines?...anyone do this yet?

Did this get completed? Any advise or custom work that you could enlighten us with?

There may be some modification needed to the cable bracket if you run a silicon 90 right on the TB. I seen one guy use a straight coupler then a mandrel 90 bend. It didn't look like he needed to modify the bracket. As for the vac/sensor ports. that is left up to the end user to put in where needed. Any place on the plenum will be fine for this since the pieces used are .25 thick. So just drill and tap where needed.
If you're not using a kickdown cable you can slice a bit off the throttle bracket to clear the 90
