Hi Guys I was just on JGYCustoms and I see they sell a Greddy Intake Manifold and a Top Speed Mainfold. What are the differences besides price and manufacturer? If You have either can you tell me why you went with it and whether you like it, Please? I really like the price on the Top Speed but it might be worth the $$$$ for the Greddy. if so please Let Me Know........Thanks

I have read that the casting on the inside of the manifold was a little rougher but I have seen dynos that show the same top end pull as the greddy. No drop off at all. For the money it is a very nice piece.

Top Speed parts aren't as high quality as Greddy thats for sure... however with something as easily copied like a cast manifold I guess you can't go wrong.

I have this same problem, did you figure out what to use or is it best to just make a totally custom bracket?

The greddy has the same problem because they were all originally designed for the S14 which positioned the TB differently. I've heard of people making custom brackets, and I've also heard of people using the SOHC throttle cable. I think you also have to make a new cold pipe or cut yours because the TB is positioned lower and at a different angle.

I know that much is true. GReddy sells a different cold pipe for their FMIC kit if you have their intake manifold. Ive seen lots of people crying about how their cold pipe no longer fit after getting this thing.
