Burny Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Which is the best intake manifold to buy? Ive been looking at both zisco and racetech inlet mani's and wonderd if anyone kniws which one is best performance wise? I heard racetech dont have any in stock too so could be awhile waiting?

mech5107 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I'd say go for a 5efhe intake and use an rpm switch to operate the 2nd runners. I've seen more than 20hp increase... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Socks Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I wud think zisco and racetech would make to order. Don't think either hav them on shelf. Loo on racetechs site. There proper cad designed etc. velocity stacks etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mattyD Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 ive gone with the racetech "race spec" inlet mate as socks said it has stacks insidethe street inlet is different and would be in terms of performance i expect Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mattyD Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 haha, i havent got it yet mate, it should be being made as we speak i reckon if you put an order in it should be ready by the time your car is ready for it ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rob H@RCH Engineering Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Have a read of this it will give you an idea of what to expect!! unless you are going for over the 350 mark there is no point in moving away from the stock manifold how many cars are running over 300 on the stock manifold these days. http://www.toyotagtturbo.com/forums/showthread.php?98651-turbo-help-please&p=1079843&highlight=#post1079843 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Amjad Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I'd say get a new intake after you get another turbo, you'll be waiting even longer just get the car back and enjoy it lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rob H@RCH Engineering Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I agree but a lot of power is spoiled if there is loads of lag too, depends on how important to ya looks are over power, but thats just me I have been around long enough to have seen lots fail and lots succeed lol as much as ya like the facts are all a round!

She's been off the road 7 months no chance am i hanging around for a different inlet which may not even increase power much ! Hurry up and get yours Matt lol, im sure alot of people will want to see before and after figures :-)I'd say get a new intake after you get another turbo, you'll be waiting even longer just get the car back and enjoy it lolExactly what Mike just said :-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rorenapier Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 No it wont.The air speed needs to be kept up not slowed down. ;)Just have a little think about it.The bigger TB would give much better response also... But aftermarket manifolds are only really needed when the stock item become restrivctive, which is out of most peoples reach power wise. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Burny Posted June 22, 2012 Author Share Posted June 22, 2012 No it wont.The air speed needs to be kept up not slowed down. ;)Just have a little think about it.Ricky said he can modify the existing one to suit the setup which sounds good, because yeah by the sounds there pretty useless unless your running 350+ bhpBut aftermarket manifolds are only really needed when the stock item become restrivctive, which is out of most peoples reach power wise.

mech5107 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Big TB don't give response in general....on the contrast, it makes it more on-off state, as with small increases in the plate angle the opening is becoming bigger.Unless you run a proper managment, big changes in TB size are not good for drivability.
