i figured i would try this, anyone else want a new intake manifold???

maybe if we can get some people i can go to a fab shop around here and try my luck(there are a lot of custom shop places that are not racist)

this is all you need to do:

1. email zornigvw@comcast.net
2. tell him you specs
3. probably send sample parts.

pay.

i would love one =)
how much do you think a custom intake manifold would cost???
like 300 - 400 maybe

ill save that email, i figured i would wait till i get a job

hopefully i can get one soon, i still gotta send you that 75

Why would you want another intake manifold?

You will loose the VGIS system, the stock intake was designed to be that way to maximize the engine's performance and fuel economy.

If your worried about applying boost to the plastic intake, dont worry about it, im sure it can take 20+ psi before it cracks. Its ABS plastic, its really strong.

yeah it would hold fine, but i dont wanna take any chances

i wonder if i would be better off just collecting parts for the engine and when i get out of college in 4 years, i could then build the engine up and run a lot more boost

ITBS?!!?

what is the VGIS?

Variable Geometry Induction system

GM didnt plan for a turbo did they

You can put a turbo on, its not gonna do anything, the vgis simply wont work because its vaccum operated, wouldnt matter anyways since you would be forcing in air.

so it just switches between runner length? makes sense with how the engine runs. i have seen many engine that do that.
