reversed intake manifold
 

i was wondering, can the intake manifold on the eg33 be reversed like the 4cylinder blocks?

Re: reversed intake manifold
 

Not and fit under the hood...as the rear of the intake is much higher then the front

Even with a custom manifold made in a reverse form, your inlet (either the throttle body - preferred - or a duct leading to one) is going to interfere with the hood or say... your alternator.

You mean like this one? I am not sure if they just reversed the manifold or if they cut out and then flipped and re-welded in the center?

I think it was cut and flipped. Nice that it fits in other cars and not ours..

Just have Class Glass fab up a Ram Air hood like on a WS6 Firebird. :p (God that would look horrible)

Re: reversed intake manifold
 

It doesn't. Hit up "TUN EZ33" for some pics of the custom snout.

nice to know our engines are 1000hp rated :D

Re: reversed intake manifold
 

It doesn't say how long they'll see that 1000hp, right?

Re: reversed intake manifold
 

nope but at least we know that there is room to put the car to 500 without having something catastrophic happen.
i'm only aiming for 300whp

Re: reversed intake manifold
 

My goal is a staggering 800hp for no specific reason.

lol smartass

just enough to keep up or beat a stock Sti while only paying a 10th of the cost of one :P

Lol I don't blame you. That and the SVX is really fun to drive.
