I don't believe you will be able to retain factory location inlets (and dcis) with this manifold, there is simply no space for it.

Thanks for the reply wuX2, but not great news...
I'm just installing my new turbos and mmp fac-loc inlets now. I'll just have to change my setup again when the intake arrives in June.
My stockers are smoking too much now to drive it as it is.

Phew, just got in on this with a few hours to spare. I'm running FBO with VVT 2+ and want to retain factory location dci's.
So I just went for the lower flow injectors, as I'm not chasing DCT busting power

yeah definitely can't fit the DCI here and I don't think you need so much fuel for upgraded stock turbos. you might have jumped the gun

Thanks. I only had a couple of hours to make a decision before the offer closed. As I said earlier, I don't know a whole lot about fuel system options so I just made the decision. At least this way I'll be prepared for a possible ST setup later, and if it can work at all with my current setup I guess it will at least help to keep the intake clean. I did ask doc race the question about it being a worthwhile thing to use with my twins and they said as long as you go over 400whp I'll see gains. They didn't mention about the fuel being overkill.

As someone mentioned here on a earlier post,will there be bung tappings (6) for running meth as a option?

@DOC_Race can you please respond? This is holding up at least 1 sale for you, probably many more.

I'm not sure if you guys got your answers, but John said that he is planning on shipping these all with meth bungs on each runner. If you don't need them, you can plug them. Either way, it looks like the group buy is closed already. But wanted to share an update that I read from him on Facebook!

I emailed them yesterday. Hopefully, I didn't wait too long... just had to make sure I could pay my bills first

Yes I was in the same boat. I emailed them a few days ago and still no response however now I can pay in full. There was no notice on the other forum that this was full. Real bummer

@DOC_Race will reply soon enough. I'd wait for the week to get going again, give him a chance to catch up.

I saw an Instagram story from OCDWorkz (the guy who is machining the DocRace manifolds) and DocRace is currently physically at his shop. I can only assume they are going over intake manifold stuff and there will be updates soon.

Snagged these off his Instagram. Manifolds are coming along and it looks like an N54 valve cover too!

I could really get behind that manifold and VC if they can be provided without the logo, and if the IM has stacks in the plenum and fits with a stock location 335 expansion tank.

I'd imagine the manifold and VC are port matched. But who's to say. Stacks would be awesome, but I don't remember anything about that in the IM group buy? Maybe I missed it.

The valve cover sits on top of the head. There is not port matching between the two, not ports between the two. Port matching, in the case you're referring to, is the intake ports on the cylinder head and the intake ports on the intake manifold.

If you look on their website they have a product for it but no picture. When you try to go to see more detail's it's all of the information is from the manifold
