48498, Port and Polish, or buy a new one.... ??
Posted by MmmDeion, Apr-07-03 03:54 AM
I just read on the boards that the people at neon.org are havin problems with their Indy Manifolds, which really sucks... Do you think the the hp difference is really gonna be that big if I just P&P my stock intake manifold, or should I really go and blow $500 on the Indy Manifold (whenever the hell it comes out)?? I guess my real question is, whats my best bang for my buck? I know no one here has the Indy manifold yet, but the for the people with a P&P 2G manifold, was there a big difference?? Just lookin for the best route seein I dont have a lot of money to be tossin around... :thumbsup

If you don't have alot of cash to toss around, the P&P from ARD is only $80.

Do you think the P&P for $80 was worth it, or no? Did u get it to match your TB (if you have one)? What is the turn around time? And do they do the upper and lower half, or just one half for $80. (sorry for all the questions). I just bought my 60mm TB, and I see it pretty useless until I can get my intake manifold to match up with it... :thumbsup

port matched all the way around, runnes and TB top gaskets, ported/polished runners, upper plenum can only be touches by extrude honing. Yes I think it was worth it.

Some say their entire runners didn't get ported, from memory I though mine were... Call and talk to Owen as far as runners and turn around time. I don't know how fast they are running these days, they are quite a bit more busy then when I had them do it. Also buy a gasket set so they have somthing to gasket match to.
