Intake Plenum Options


Geo

Recommended Posts

As i'll be concentrating on the intake side of things first with my build i'm wondering what Options we have with regards to Upgraded Plenums,

 

So far i have looked at -

 

Hypertune

Greddy

Induction Performance(this comes with custom made fuel Rail)

VW or Hypertune.

 

Personally I don't like cutting up the car, so I vote fot the IP or DOC (Both RMR style, but slightly different)

 

But tbh, I won't look at intake manifolds at all if you're planning on less than 800rwhp...

As much as i liked my Old Greddy style one, i Prob won't be going with Lee's Version. Why? its simple, everyone has them, want something different tbh on this build, hence why im asking for Options for whats out there.

Well it depends on the setup really. But bang for buck I would keep the stock unit.

6766 + E85 is an easy 800+ rwhp with stock intake (not sure what your planning turbo and fuel wise). Hell I know 6266 setups making high 700rwhp with the stock intake.

 

Don't take this the wrong way, they definitely help adding power to the 2jz, but it's an expensive upgrade. And 99% of the people won't need one to reach their goals.

If you want to max out xyz setup, then you can add one.

Have you considered having a stock manifold modified with internal work. Dan did that on my car. Not certain what extra performance it gives, but there are notes on his build thread.

 

That way you get increased capacity, better flow but retain the stock look that side of the engine bay. Food for thought?

One thing to keep in mind is that if you have a stock intake and electric fans, the pipework from the IC runs right up behind the fan so when it kicks in, it blows hot air all over your intake pipe and it suffers with heat soak. The obvious way to help with this is heat wrap the pipe, but that is definitely function over form. You could also zircotech it, but big money as you know, or you could keep the stock viscous fan. All personal preference choices :)

 

Of course if you decide to go after market you may find yourself cutting holes in the body to get it to fit, so I guess it all boils down to your goals with the project
