Tino, it should be easy conversion 'cos you already have M800? just get DBW extra and convert the pedal... Ie like Matt and Stace did on the GC8 conversion.

I dont think it is muggz... ill take a pic of the TB

Looks like a good set up dude. Reverse intake manifolds is a good idea.

theres no cut out for the idle air bypass, so unless theres a modified throttle body included.

wow thats a hideous looking intake manifold. grab a photo inside the throttle body of how the runners come out, i'd like to see how they are done. I'm sure the runners flow better but i doubt you'll get good airflow in a square box.

Why did the other owner remove it ?

tell me wot u really think mat, u fag.... nah i appreciate the comments.

The owner removed it as he had to sell his complete engine and revert to stock to compete in a tarmac event... he had a 2.4ltr with a AV450 on it...

ill get a pic of inside the runners...

spell my name properly ya cunt

give it a wash with some carby cleaner or petrol or something, looks like he's had some blow by collection on those straight edges at the back. it also looks to me like the velocity stacks on the left extend in further than the ones on the right, either that or the throttle body hole isnt centered.

do you need to have the same dented inlet pipe to make the bonnet fit ?

Out of curiosity Tino, how much was this manifold?

hahahah ill spell ur name however the fk i want to...

Its just the picture the velocity stacks are evenly apart. I took it down to ASG and they rekon its not that pretty (too square).. hahahha but the velocity stacks suggest that it will flow well, taking the emphasis off the square nature of the manifold.

I dont think ill have to cut the pipe to fit. My piping should be fine, but wont know until the manifold is fitted...

Tell me what u think of the quality, should perform well:

Im getting my engine rebuilt:

2.5ltr sleeved, pistons etc.
Ported 2.0ltr sti heads
Cosworth AVCS 278/274 cams
GT35R 0.82 A/R
PE 800cc injectors
Dual walbro fuel pumps

Thats the majoity of the mods.

And this is it on his car:

Seen that manifold for sale...

look at the trp custom job looks a lot better quality..
