Use a Y8. You can find them on our SI's. This thread will help you out with what you need to know.

hmm, won't let me put the link up.

hey .. thanks but your link doesnt work !! and i dont wana use a y8 !! i whant something different and theres not alot of SI's around here thats why ... what about an H intake manifold ?

 

H series manifold and gaskets wont fit. Have you use D series.

 

anything off of a d series will work.

why don't you want to use the y8?

 

You'll have to use a Y8, and it is basically the best d-series I/M.

 

Z6 will work too, just that some people say that the y8 is better, and i think that they have both been tested and dynoed, but im not sure, some people argue that the z6 is better, but i have a y8 on my y7 motor, and it gives it more topend power according to the butt dyno atleast

 

y8! even if u dont do the whole mini me swap you will still notice a difference with the bigger im but u should deffinatley eventually get the y8 head and ecu to go vtec..i did it and its sweet

 

id go Y8 no prob its just i heard some sensor on the IM wont match up !! and i saw on a thred ppl were puttin Auto Y8 Im on a M/t Y7 cuz thats the only way u can stay with the stock wiring .... whats the big difference between y7 and y8 ??? anyone know ?

 

ANYBODY ?

 

y8 or z6. I thought that the EX came with y8?

 

i had a z6 intake manifold, it ran better than my ex stock but my other car had exhaust who knows. i think the z6 looks more like the type r intake manifold that i have now
