the terrible discussion again!

[getnrowdy23]

yeah i know i searched and read for ever... but i want to know what intake manifold you guys are using. what power did you gain? do you like it? recommend it? stuff like that. i dont want this to turn into bashing one company or another. i want peoples experienced opnions. thanks

[boost_creep]

from what ive read is that u wont see significant gains from a intake manifold unless youre pushin some serious horsepower.not saying i wouldnt recommend it..i just dont think its needed.im runnin the stocker....just my two cents.

[spider_slayer]

yea, i havn't bought an intake manifoldsimply because the stock one is pretty efficent as it is. same goes for the stock exaust mani. they are both pretty good as they are

[brndck]

we hand ported my stock one and i noticed probably about a 1-2 hp increase, due to smoother air flow and increased volume.

[getnrowdy23]

well i am going to be running about 450 hp from my sr. thats why i am wondering if the stocker can handle that

[wildacexxx]

i saw ur mods list and by the looks of it u cant possibly be pushing 450hp.

Anything over about 350whp will show significant gains with a intake mani. There was a guy on fresh alloy I believe that dyno'ed before and after but I can't remember what the differences were.

The intake mani is going to act very similar to a cam where it makes the car continue to pull strong after 6K (and ultimately result in more power). I think the guy made like 40-60whp from the mani on a 350+whp setup.

i am not making 450 now but i have some money to spend right now so i can make it... i am trying to get all the right parts to make 450. i apologize for the confusion, but soon i will be making that much power but not right now
