I was going to stop by the machine shop yesterday but got called into some meeting instead. I need to drop off a few drawings to them tomorrow and will check then. I would like to have it and the revised E-Manage program tested by the end of the month.

It should be ready later today. I will swing by and pick it up tomorrow or Thursday. I need to get a test car and set up the dyno which I would like to do within the next week. That is provided I have the other item to test with also.
If the plate works out I will finalize the design and create a (hopefully) final prototype to test once again. At the same time I have an idea for a complete package system to test.

I know it's too early to tell but I'll ask anyway....What do you think the aprox. gains would be?

I remember him saying not with the S/C. I believe with N2O it would though.

This thing now goes back years and has seen no benefit to us all.

You are already creating positive pressure with the blower negating any benefit of this.
However, I know of another manifold item which definitely helps the blower.

I have the plate now and am working on getting the E-Manage ready. I want to test either a week from this Saturday or the following week at the latest.

BTW, I should have a King Motorsports ported TB available soon. This way there is no delay or down time, I just need your core back. Price will have to be $200.00 plus a refundable core charge.
