A kind gentlemen - who is not big dogs, or affiliated with them sent me a big dogs cobra intake that has been ported. I’ll be replacing the box r intake on the car temporarily to see the difference.

I won’t get into the pissing contest, really here as a third party to make a comparison. Here are some pics of it compared to a factory explorer intake. All measurements are in mm.

This will be a strict a to b comparison deal. I’ll look at fuel flow and dragy times to see which one works the best. Engine is a woody built 347 with a f1r blower. Any ideas on which will come out on top?

If anyone wants any other pics or measurements, please Let me know and I’ll oblige if I can.

Looks awesome. What was the motivation in staying with a Cobra intake vs going aftermarket?

The box r will eventually be going back on. This is just to do some testing.

I’ll grab the popcorn hold on a minute.

It’ll be interesting to see how the lower matches up to your heads.

Looks nice, can't wait to see the results.

is this the cut and welded upper?

Lower looks huge, which heads are you running?

I think it will be a bit smaller judging by the 1262r on there now.

I believe it’s just welded on a couple runners to allow for more room to port.

They’re 11r 205s

Tech is good, but the upside readings are killing me lol

Measure how long the ports are on the upper. Inches please. Lol

 

[rob]

this is the cut or uncut upper?

where are you located, i have a R long upper you can try and a systemax. might even have a tmoss lower to compare too.

I've always been curious about numbers on the intakes. I have no desire to partake in the pissing matches.

WHat exactly is the test you are going to do? Stock explorer lower and upper, vs the BD cobra upper and lower?

Holy bellmouth batman!

Actual measurements are nice, but we need sockets per square inch of port volume to get accurate information.

Lmao. I’ll upload them again and flip them.

I believe it’s uncut. What size opening on the long r?

I’m going to see how the cobra intake does against the box r.

Hold on I’ll stick a couple sockets in and get back to you

the small one, 75 I think.

What “stage” port work did the owner pay for?

 

[Str8ballar]

This is my intake.

Upper is ported
Average runner length 12.75in
MCSA 2.45sqin

Stage 3 port work

 

[Kingfish999]

not trying to be the one to start the pissing contest but im currious on what the turnaround time was on it and what stage it was. i understand it takes many months. also interested in cost

EGR port naturally bigger on those? almost looks it was also ported

I was always told by the best it's not sockets, it's golf balls. "Oh yeah this is ported so great you can roll a golf ball down the port.
