Who makes the best aftermarket intake manifold for a D16Z6 motor?

Thanks

Me and a buddy ported a z6 manifold ourselves. You can do the same. Just get a metal grinding bit and a dremel and start hackin' away. Theres about 6mm to shave off on the throttle body end, and about 2mm on the stacks. flow just like an aftermarket one and for free.

Does focuz make anything good? HA! You'd be better off porting a y8 manifold or your z6 mani. Just make sure not to polish it, just port.

Soul180: Just start shavin! The less obstructive material, the better. Just remember: Shorter, fatter stacks makes more top-end power. So make the air-flow passage as short as possible and as wide as possible. Just remember to wash out your manifold really really really really good before reinstlaling it.

they're Individual Throttle bodies Illuvciv99.

Not practical on street cars. They are usually used on full-race vehicles. they don't even really have filters, just little metal screen coffee-filter type things and they are loud as crap. LIKE ULTRA LOUD.





STR and Venom make some cool manifolds. I really wouldn't mess w/ a mod like that on a mildly bolted-on car. Now turbo cars, etc. it would be a useful mod.


Also, does Focuz even make a manifold?
