78508, WHICH INTAKE MANIFOLD SHOULD I GET???
Posted by chopedtobits, Aug-03-04 04:25 PM
i went and ordered my obx header for 155+32(shipping) but now i want even more power and i dont plan to go turbo, so should i go for the intake manifold next? obx has one brand new for about 200 and i was wondering if its worth the 200 i want all the power i can get so 5-10 horses is worth 200 bucks to me.

our stock intake manifold is just as good if not better than an after market.

just get a 60mm throttle body and bore out the manifold..

also.. you wont get 5 to 10hp from an obx intake manifold.

as far as im concerned any aftermarket intake manifold doesn't do a thing for you.

Find a used stock intake mani on eBay or in the sale/wanted forum here and then send it to Eddy at www.fierroracing.com. He'll port it and gasket match it and all that good stuff for about $80 and shipping. It will more than likely out perform any aftermarket. You can see pics of my intake mani on his site to see what he does. Quality work by a master imo. :thumbsup
