Default WTB D16Z6 performance parts

Im looking to buy a few parts for my new Z6 EG build. im not going to be racing this car at all but am doing a full tuck and shave for a clean engine bay look for car shows and the parts im looking for will help give it that clean look.

Im looking for

an edelbrock performer X Intake mani I can get one new shipped for $235 just want to see if someone has one here that is in need of the money and willing to let one go cheaper.

I am also looking for a polished billet blox 68mm TB or one similar. The reason I say blox because I like the design of how big they are I know that DH racing and blox use the same exact design so I want one with that design.

and last for now a fuel rail preferably blue. iv got a stock one ive polished my self but want to look into an aftermarket one.

O yea and a nice cam gear as well


LMK what you got along with pictures and prices. PLEASE do not message me without pictures my time is limited due to work, business, kids and my build

I also prefer these parts to be really clean and the TB to be super clean polishing in small spots is a bitch.

thanks

how is it going to make it slower? if you dont mind me asking and if i were to supercharge it I couldnt use that intake mani because the super charger would be taking its place lol

the supercharger was a ref and read up more about that mani and were the power band is actually used...it will basically choke the motor bc so much air coming in the motor with no where to go.

well what if I use a smaller throttle body? I def wanna use the mani because it routs all the vacume lines and sensors to the bottom of it which give the motor a clean look. the skunk2 one is just a stock mani with a name plate on it nothing different then the type r mani

for most people thats fine but im the kind of guy who likes to build show stoppers this is not my first show car build and is prob far from my last.

I just need to know that if i put the edelbrock intake mani on the engine is it really going to kill it that bad? a big noticable difference that will cause problems?

If you were any more of a moron.... Actually you can't be. Don't listen to him. Get what you want, a decent free flowing EXHAUST and a TUNE and it'll run like it was OEM but with more power.

I kind of figured that out when he said that the mani was only good for nitrous boost or "SUPERCHARGE" the minuet i seen that i looked at the post count and figured he didn't know what he was talking about so i kinda went along with it to see what other non relevant **** he would say.

NO OFFENSE but since when does a company that been building performance parts for years put something on the shelf sell billions worth of product and it makes your car run worse?

Just do research and get the right application for the mods you do/have done and you won't have any problems.... and seriously a tune or atleast a basemap will go a long way.

I think what he was referring to is that the IM is more for a boost application, that will require more air flow than an N/A D16 would require or use.....unless you were planning a "super D" build but since you are making this a show car I doubt you are "building" the motor. A 68mm TB is pretty big for a stock D-series engine, that doesn't have turbo build plans in the future.....

^I found this IM for $225.40 shipped if you end up not finding a used one on the low!

right i understand that much thats why i previously said what if I change just the mani? and what about a 66mm TB thats the smalles aftermarket one i found by blox. and the reason why I likw the blox design because it doesnt have all those factory air line/water hose connections sticking off of it.

and yea thats the IM i seen for sale that hella cheap

MY BAD MR. CERTIFIED HONDA MECHANIC

i was asking for the parts i wanted to buy not a story behind the parts i was looking for. like I said in the start of this post im building a show car "SHOW CAR" not a race car and i wanted the parts to help clean up the "LOOK" of the engine bay.

Im not like most people who just talk about what they want to do and wast peoples time here on HT when I say im going to do something I do it and make sure I have the cash to back me up. I stated that above that Im here to spend money and help a fellow HT member out. so either you have something I need for sale or you dont. Im not trying to be a dick but please my time is limited heat wave is right around the corner
