VR6-T Intake Manifold Mishap

18 psi on a stock MK4 plastic intake doesn't last very long. I was on my way to Philly when I heard a loud pop, and loss of power. I popped the hood, and saw a huge hole, but had to act fast to get home. I took some cardboard out of my truck and the roll of duct tape, and made it happen

yea 18 psi will do it for the plastic intake manifolds....need to get the SRI made out of aluminum so it can hold that ammount of boost

The owner eventually made his own sheet metal manifold for the car, before eventually selling it. Car made 400whp/400 ft lbs with the manifold too....total rocket of a little car!
