Intake System Design

[Breeze]

Hi everyone
Would anyone know the best method for designing an intake system if you have not got cfd or dyno facilities to test the systems. Is there any websites or calculations that can be done to find the best attributes for the system? Like the restrictor design, plenum shape and volume and the runners?
