Default Alternative to Z6 intake for mini-me swap?

Hey Guys

I am currently doing the mini-me swap to my Civic, I was going to purchase a Z6 intake for the swap but want to know if there are any decent alternatives to this.

Thanks
Chris

Other than anything aftermarket, you can use the D16Y8 intake manifold. It's the best OEM D-series I/M out there... Just keep in mind the Z6 I/M isn't much better than the A6.

Z6 does have better gains over the A6.... the design from the colletor tunel to each cylinder its designed better
of course the Y8 is the best.. but what people forget is that u can actually use a Z6 manifold on a OBD car..... they work fine.... just use the MAP sensor on the TB of the Z6

So my best bet is to use the Z6 manifold over the A6 as long as I keep the MAP sensor from the z6 manifold?

Z6 Map sensor is on the TB. So you must get the TB with it.
