Dave once again Thanks for the testing..
peole dont realize the massive effort required to do this and the hard work that is required .. and done to no benefit but for us to see...
you sir are a legend

I am gonna look at ordering an HKS intake and i dont think i would have a problem with ABS as our cars are RHD and ABS pump is on left side..

65mm ported TB and HKS intake will make good power....
Thanks agin

$1900 plus shipping on the Kansai intake. The ABS can be moved slightly but will require a few new brake lines being made.

If one of you has a new intake manifold I'd be more that willing to put it on my car and test it. I actually am going to do further testing as soon as I get in the JUN intake manifold anyway.

I'd like to test the new intake from Magnus and actually see it increase power.

Really? Another test intake manifold test? you must be a masochist!


I already see problems with your testing! Did you have the same dinner the night before on each test? If you had lots of gas from mexican food on one test and not the other, the dyno room will have a higher percentage of methane composition in the air.. and since methane is readily combustible, this will lead to inflated numbers on the dyno... and therefore invalidationg all of your testing...

I wish you'd give the JM Fabrications a shot. It appears to be along the lines of the Driven Innovation piece in terms of quality and what I've seen on other cars, power output as well.

I am not testing the JMF. I've seen the video, looks interesting, not testing it.

The JUN is what is being tested next with a 3" throttle body. I may end up putting the Kansai and Driven back on the car with 3" throttle bodies to see how they do too.

I just want to figure out which one is the best and leave it on my car.

Much better testing with all 3 inch T/B on the manifolds.
