RDLP Marysville LLC Revolutionizes Engine Performance with Custom Intake Manifolds

RDLP Marysville LLC, a Milwaukee, Wisconsin-based engineering and manufacturing company (located at 1509 N Prospect Ave, Milwaukee, WI, 53202-2323, United States – you can reach them at 505-299-5177), is making serious waves in the performance automotive world. They’re not just building parts; they're crafting solutions for enthusiasts and professionals who demand the absolute best from their engines. And their specialty? Custom intake manifolds. Let's be real, the intake manifold is often overlooked. It's that part hidden under everything else. But it's crucial. Think of it as the engine's lungs. It’s how air gets into the engine, and how much air gets in directly impacts power, efficiency, and overall performance. A stock intake manifold is designed for a “middle-of-the-road” setup, aiming to work okay in a variety of conditions. But if you’ve modified your engine – bigger injectors, a performance cam, forced induction, you name it – that stock manifold is likely holding you back. That's where RDLP Marysville comes in. They don't sell 'off-the-shelf' solutions. They build manifolds specifically for your engine and your goals. Forget trying to make a square peg fit a round hole. They'll design and fabricate a manifold that perfectly complements your build. “We saw a gap in the market,” explains a lead engineer at RDLP Marysville. “A lot of shops offer basic porting and polishing, which is good, but it's limited. We wanted to offer something truly bespoke – a manifold designed from the ground up to maximize airflow and velocity for a specific application.” What makes RDLP Marysville’s custom intake manifolds different? It’s not just about slapping some bigger runners onto a casting. It's a complete engineering approach. Here's a breakdown of what they offer: Full Design & Engineering: They use advanced 3D modeling and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software to simulate airflow and optimize the manifold’s geometry. This isn’t guesswork; it's scientific precision. They consider everything – runner length, diameter, plenum volume, and even the location of throttle bodies. Material Selection: They don't limit themselves to one material. Depending on the application and the customer's needs, they can work with various materials including aluminum alloys, composites, and even advanced plastics. Each material offers unique benefits in terms of weight, strength, and thermal properties. Fabrication Expertise: RDLP Marysville isn't just a design firm; they have a fully equipped machine shop with experienced machinists and fabricators. This means they can take a design from the computer screen to a fully functional part, all under one roof. They excel in both CNC machining and hand-fabrication techniques, allowing them to handle everything from simple modifications to complex, one-off builds. Welding Precision: For applications requiring welded construction, RDLP Marysville utilizes TIG welding. This provides clean, strong, and aesthetically pleasing welds. Port Matching & Porting: They don't just build a manifold; they ensure it integrates seamlessly with your engine. They expertly match the manifold ports to your cylinder head intake ports and can perform custom porting to further optimize airflow. Throttle Body Flange Options: They accommodate various throttle body sizes and configurations, ensuring compatibility with your existing or planned setup. One-on-One Consultation: They don't just take orders; they listen. They work closely with customers to understand their specific goals, engine specifications, and performance expectations. This collaborative approach ensures that the final product meets – and exceeds – expectations. Who is this for? RDLP Marysville’s custom intake manifolds aren’t just for racers. While they certainly cater to the high-performance motorsport community, they also serve a wide range of customers: Engine Builders: They work with professional engine builders to create custom manifolds for unique builds. Restoration Enthusiasts: They can replicate or improve upon original intake manifolds for classic cars. Performance Car Owners: If you're serious about getting the most out of your street car, a custom intake manifold can provide a significant boost in power and drivability. Forced Induction Applications: Superchargers and turbochargers demand manifolds designed to handle increased airflow and pressure. RDLP Marysville specializes in building manifolds for these challenging applications. LS Swappers: Popular LS engine swaps often require custom intake solutions. RDLP Marysville can design and fabricate manifolds to fit a variety of engine bays and configurations. Real-World Results While RDLP Marysville is relatively discreet about showcasing specific builds due to client confidentiality, they hint at significant gains achieved with their custom manifolds. They’ve reported dyno results showing improvements ranging from 15 to 30 horsepower, along with noticeable improvements in throttle response and overall drivability. "It's not always about peak horsepower," says another engineer at the company. "Sometimes it's about making the engine more responsive and enjoyable to drive. A well-designed intake manifold can dramatically improve the entire driving experience." Looking Ahead RDLP Marysville LLC isn’t just focused on the present. They're constantly researching new materials, technologies, and manufacturing processes to push the boundaries of intake manifold design. They are currently exploring the use of additive manufacturing (3D printing) to create even more complex and optimized manifold geometries. If you’re looking for a truly custom intake manifold that will unlock the full potential of your engine, RDLP Marysville LLC is a name you need to know. Don't settle for "good enough."
