I think it was Jason Torchinsky over at Jalopnik who made the bold observation that the intake on the Infiniti VH41DE has an uncanny resemblance to the face hugger from the Alien movies. Once you make that realization you’ll never open your hood again. Sorry Infiniti owners, it’s time to let somebody else check those fluids. Intake manifolds used to be simple things. Hell, for the longest time they were logs cast right into the heads! As computer-aided design and the goal of eking out every last bit of efficiency and power from our engines, intakes have taken on a life of their own. Some are multi-stage, while others look like French Horns on LSD. We want to see those weirdos today. What is the weirdest intake manifold you have ever had the pleasure to behold? Image: ECS Tuning
