Default im

does ne one out there have an intake manifold for their LSteg? I already have i/h/e and i just want to get a hi-flow cat and an im to complete the bolt-ons regarding the airflow. i was just wondering if it was worth it to spend 400 bucks on an im for a non-vtec auto teg. thanx

Seems like a pile of money for what is sure to be very minimal gains. Only you can decide if it's worth it, but I certainly wouldn't do it.

no offense but the SI driver was probly bad...cuz auto tegs put down about 100hp to the wheels..in all honestly your best bet would be nitrous with that 400bucks..IM wont do **** for your auto teg..totally not worth it IMO.

A tranny swap would do more for you in every way than anything else, really...if that's an option. Seriously, it only takes a couple days to learn stick if you just take the car out and drive for a while. Any stories you might hear about them being a pain in the *** are bullshit...after 2 weeks you won't even know you're shifting; and driving will be a lot more fun in general! You could do a 15.8 with a 5 speed easily.

I'm sure you could pick up an LS tranny dirt cheap.
