if i needed another daily i would probably buy your Saturn, Chris.

Steve...I am putting Spoon springs on her.

Very nice

the swifts that i sold you dave???

make a cheap front tow hook under $50 kyle...

intake manifold

speak of that..

what do you guys think would be a fair price for a custom intake manifold that works.

I am trying to talk Brad at RLZ into making up something but we need to figure a price range first.

and if anyone have a completly bare head laying around for cheap lmk. i think an RLZ cnc program would be bad ***.. just have to convince em to do it, lol.

CNC an intake manifold?

hop you plan on doing that in more than one piece and welding them together (like a sheet metal manifold)

or using some type of fastener setup, there is a reason why 1 piece manifolds are cast or overlaid CF in 2 or more pieces.

im still contemplating boring my TB and IM to match... i think that would be a cheap, easy way to make some power...

i wanna do that as well this summer... get as much out of the stock parts as possible

SuzukaBlueAP2

does anyone know what most people are clamping their MAP sensors at for boosted applications that are using the stock MAP? I see where some clamp at 2.9...some 4.4...some 5.0.

Just trying to figure out where these different numbers are coming from.

JDogg

probably done in multiple pieces then welded together. IDK i dont make the stuff, i just convince other people that its a good idea to make....

so how much would you guys pay, and would a "kit" be an option, buy the pieces and you weld it together?

Clamp the stock map sensor at 2.8 volts

i drive a honda

you can probably make a few and be competitive with them, but like everything else with cars power gain is what sells it

JDogg

has anyone ever used the magnus manifold on an S? i have never actually seen one compared to anything.

i drive a honda

nah they've been getting a bad rep lately, after they started leaking on alot of people, and that pic with one where it split all the way down the weld.

JDogg

how much do they cost?

never mind... reading is key

SuzukaBlueAP2

that seems to be the general concensus. is that because at sea level (or close to it) the voltage on the MAP sensor will be 2.9v?

JDogg

yep, the stock sensor reads 0psi at around 2.8-2.9 volts, the ecu will throw a cel if it sees map voltage higher than that

SuzukaBlueAP2

i can't recall where I was reading it at, but, I remember reading where there were some substantial horsepower gains made with a big bore throttle body on a super charged setup.

$900 for a IM... eat my dick!!!

i can bore out my TB and IM with a spacer for around $250 shipped both ways and will gain around 5-6 whp w/o a tune...

i have to ****

S2KILLA

this place is the ghey today...

White Smoke

900 for a custom manifold is very reasonable. I'm pissed I sold my full-race for 1400 when some guy just PMed me a month ago and offered me 2k for it if I still had it.

S2KILLA

to each his own... i personally wouldnt spend my money on something like that...

JDogg

how much would a good intake manifold be worth?

S2KILLA

well the skunk2 for an integra is around $300 and thats proven to make power correct??? so since we have s2000's and everything cost sooo much more, would double the cost be too much to ask for... Id pay for one around $500...

JDogg

IDk if he could do one for that price but ill see what i can talk em into.

I have $150bux, someone sell me a bare head.. haha
