Default Which stock intake SOHC intake manifold flows best?

Which intake is the one that has the huge stumpy plenum that everyone says flows really good with turbo? Y8?

No, I can get some if you'd like. Its nothing special, just a OEM Y8 intake manifold in great shape.

I believe that the Y8 will flow better, although it may not be a huge margin.

Make sure you get a 96-98 Y8 manifold. 99-00 are smaller and a little different. Also, do not get the Auto one!!! It is different.

the only difference is the IACV on the back of the manifold. thats it.

It seem pretty apparent when you look at them. I want to see what the flow test results are gonna be. I have A Y8 IM on my Z6 & I personally noticed a change.

So I'm guessing all of these out flow my D15B7 intake? I had a Y8 IM, but I sold it because it looked like it was missing some important stuff my other one had.

The auto y8 IM has the iacv mounted on the tb. So it can't take an iacv mounted on the back of the IM like the 5-spd y8 IM.
