RRM Intake Manifold and Throttle Body

Does anyone know the measurements of how much they actually port these out to? Also, what kind of gains can I expect? 8 - 10? I am shooting to outrun the RRM shop car, but i've never really done a performance orientied car. Most of mine have been show and shine cars. So i'm definitely willing to get a little crazy with performance.

Those figures are more for a f/i car, not n/a. I'd just read up cuz there's already plenty of threads regarding the tb, im, and a combination of both. Good luck with your quest to beat the RRM shop car!

Boe told me I would gain around 10 or more with both on. I only have the manifold on now, but I can feel a good gain, especially top end.

10 for n/a, more for F/I im sure. Your throttle response will also be alot beter too

I think RPW is the only company who makes cams. They come in stages, 1, 1.5, 2, and 3.

Fuel, u can get FPR (fuel pressure regulator), Fuel pump, Fuel rail, Bigger injecters, And u would want to get some type of ecu upgrade like emanage, piggyback, s-afc, ems or something to tune all that stuff with. If u didnt know, If u do upgrade ur cam, u wont be able to use RRM's piggyback, unless u could bring it into their shop...so unless u could do that u would have to tune urself or take it to a dyno and tune it, etc.

did i leave anything out?

In the case of upgrading a cam, I'd seriously recommend at least the e-manage for fuel tuning. The SAFC can only reach so far down in the rpm band, whereas the e-manage can be set to literally any point.

I beg to differ. All it takes is some time, some money, and a lot of determination. Yes, there are a lot of parts on there, but it's certainly nowhere near the reaches of what can be done with a Lancer. It's more of a showcase for RRM parts that's fast as a result than the reverse.
