I have been looking for about an hour now all over and the only one i have found is on a car for sale, adn it says a custom unit by jun which uses a 90mm q45 TB. NIce manifold-but where the heck can I find one? I could care less if its Jun or not as long as its quality--where are these things at?!

BYP (Back Yard Productions) in Miami made Dee's manifold... be prepared to drop some serious dough on it though... there is little to no aftermarket support here in the states for CA's, so good luck finding a brand name manifold!

I was thinking that a company made them--i cant remember where the articale i saw that had one. I dont mind spending the money on a custom one as long as its worth it. BYP--i ahve heard good and bad things about them. Alot of which that they promise much but dont have much proof to offer when supporting their claims. Im not one to judge though. Ill check them out and see if I cant talk to someone about it.If this be the case though, why not call up SP racing. They have a good fabricator there I believe that makes custom manis for the KA motors. I have never used one though from there....

sp--sound performance. I believe they have a website-though i dont know it offhand. Also--they deal largely with supras. That could be a goof on my part, but ill stand by it--im pretty sure that its sp racing.Titan motorsports, also has someone that i believe fabs custom intake manis for KA motors. SO a CA should be about the same thing--if you pay the bucks--then i dont doubt he could make one.Heres the prob that I see with custom short runners. Not all of them do the good things they are supposed to. They can increase top end, but only on the dyno, with the car at a certain load. They sometimes cause a drop off in VE. But not always. Its just that when you buy an off the shelf one--they have had time and reasearch put into them, not just whipped up for someone with a custom order--they are designe do tmake power.

edit--heres the website to sound performancehttp://www.sound-performance.com/

also--check out http://www.titanmotorsports.com

Anyway i could get someone to tell me where i can get a CA now is there? I want to spend around 1000 to 1300 shipped--can it be done or should I wait a little bit until i can dish out around 1500?
