    I believe its 7mm over stock is the max. your friend is best to measure the port opening on the intake manifold and then measure the lower inside lip...since that will be the first section to run out of material the quickest.

          no problem, but you know the lower inside lip i'm talking about tho right? that'll be the first spot to run out of room.

              so when will you hear back from your friend? i'm sure if he's able to do this, a few ppl might want in on this. Probably doesn't cost a lot either.
