I am uncertain whether it is the upper or lower intake manifold. However, I believe along with you that it will most likely be the lower intake manifold. dont worry your investment was well spent!

Do you personally think that there will be a benefit to this intake manifold for the N/A guys? I know that the most improvement to be had is in the lower intake manifold from the looks of it, it would be my next big mod if it helped out the N/A setups too!

Christian,

I would love to be able to give you a firm answer on this. However, we are still in the fitment stage of the development of the product. Give us a few weeks with the product after we finish the fitment and we should have some base numbers.

Mike

p.s. I havent seen the difference between the stock airbox and the GTR one... However, the runners on the GTR intake are able to flow some serious air!!! I personally think that everyone will see benefits from this system.

No I dont work at GTM... please dont read into it. This is a shared project of GTM and my own. All the credit and questions should be directed toward GTM as I merely just gave them the opportunity and platform to which they could develop the new product on
