I'm sorry, but this manifold blows IMHO. Just don't see why people waste their time with it.
I'm sorry, but front wheel drive sucks IMO. Just don't see why people waste their time with it
Maybe I should just dump 10 gallons of Seafoam down my intake

It has a bad rap because hardly anyone would make it work correctly. If it's installed correctly, it's awesome. More low end power with identical up top is awesome for a heavy DD 4 banger, especially with a big turbo and low compression engine.I'm sorry, but this manifold blows IMHO.

Freerevving, I need to send my cyclone to you to get ported.
I don't know about the top end thing man, as far as I understand, the top end flow is the exact same as the USDM manifold. The porting will help, but don't expect a night and day difference up top.thanks... I'm hoping that with the smoother flow, and opened up secondaries, that it'll have even more grunt ... but it should have WAY more top end

Wow, that's looking really nice. Now that you've done yours are you up for porting one for anyone else? I have been wanting to slap one on my car but haven't felt like going through the trouble of doing a nice port job on it, yours looks awesome, let me know if you're up for doing one for me.
Nice. I'm also looking into Cyclone manifold as well. Something about actuating butterfly valves turn me on. Have you done any testing yet? The previous thread had slight porting as stated and they gained like 5 cfm over a 1g. Yours seems to be very heavily ported so I'm interested in the gains.
Are you gona run your car with the stock intake at the track and then bolt on cyclone intake to see if there are any gains?
