Someone is coming out with a new intake manifold that should far exceed the X-Ram!!

 I have seen the dyno numbers from an 84 CFI 383 with a 20 HP gain with this new manifold -WOW! This manifold also looks awesome!

  I think this is exactly what us 82/84 CrossFire Injection freaks have been waiting for!!

I will get more info on the new "Renegade" by the end of the week and post to this thread.

Did anyone notice that the
X-Ram has been discontinued per their site?!

It looks and sounds great and Ive been impressed with other hardware from DCS.  I didnt see a price though, you have any idea what kind of $$$ we are talking about Phill?

Thanks a million!!

I e-mailed DCS for some more info and pricing. It will work with the ZZ383 with the standard manifold bolt pattern. Price should be around $450.

Is DCS still building and selling the Renegade? I recently purchased an 82 and I'm looking into a few upgrades. According to the site they are filling back orders, but they never replied to my emails. any news on the subject would be helpful.

I have no idea if they are still manufacturing the renegade but if Phill doesnt respond to this post send a PM to Phill's Vette here on the forum. His car was used as a test mule for the renegade.  He lives in the area where DCS is located and may be able to answer that question. Crossfire19822011-05-11 07:44:43

Sorry for the delay...
  Try calling Jim at 1-
480-236-4184 Monday to Friday, 9:00am to 4:00pm (PST) 
Someone should answer/call you back. I will also call him and let him know.
  I'm not sure on their back order status right now, but I still highly recommend the Renegade for any CFI! It IS the best thing anyone can do to wake up a CFI - best bang for the buck. I currently have about 20,000 miles on my Renegade and absolutely love it!

 It is just one guy running DCS right now as the other guy had to take a job out of state, so he may be running a bit behind.
If you are still having problems with contacting them, let me know.
