Official Richard Holdener who wants to buy an intake manifold list

[Ranggarn]

Ummm.. I am a real "banause" when it comes to engine and mechanical components. I've been away for a long time (absent from yarisworld) but now that I have returned and rekindled myself with these posts... I gotta say wow. For 700 bucks I was thinking man, I need to get in on this. So if it is possible to add another person to the list... please do so if the following conditions aren't going to become obstacles:
1. I live in Australia, the engines are the same and I hope that the engine bays are the same.
2. Shipping costs: With such an order I was wondering whether it would be possible to ship the manifold to Australia. I'm guessing that shipment would cost somewhere around 300-500 US dollars? Not really sure I have never tackled such an order before.
3. Banause: Yes I am the village idiot when it comes to installing stuff on my Yaris. I am like a movie producer, I find stuff and combine them to make the ultimate block buster movie: I didn't act or direct or do anything fancy to lightning and sound effects, but I reap the benefits! (Ok a little too dramatic, but you get the gist.. please?). I know you supply a step by step manual (with pictures!), and I won't be the one doing the install, but granted that the workshop I want to install the manifold for me aren't total idiots I should be able to drive around with more POWARRRRR under my hood yes? (yes!)

So please, If you have time to review my comment then let me know if it is still alright to be added to the list if the aforementioned criteria are met. Thanks Richard!

Yo you have a whole list of people we getting pics anytime soon?

You should contact CALIYARIS (Garm) he probably can help you work out the shipment. I think he has shipped stuff to Australia before.

[richardholdener]

The first production run of intakes willbemore than the number of people on the list, so please add your name. Installation is easy and comes with instaructions so that should not be a problem. Not sure on shipping and import tax to AUS.

$700.00 for 10 extra hp.. intake and exhaust may bring it up to 120 hp which may beat the new FIT power band!....interesting..

[Yoda]

yea that new fit comes with 117hp i believe. :(

[kou]

if all the #'s are right. we should looking at 125whp with intake, header, full 2'' exhaust,pulleys and this manifold

[richardholdener]

Please don't speculate about power numbers using the intake-that is why I provided the power graph. No one has produced anwhere near 125 wheel hp in NA form. I posted a graph previously where we made 120 wheel hp using a version of the intake, CAI, no exhaust (just a down pipe) and the stock ex man. It may be possible to get to 125 wheel hp, but it will likely take a long-tube header (which does not exist as of yet) and underdrive pulleys (assuming they are worth power). Your typical CAI, axle back and this intake will be closer to 115 wheel hp.

less rotational mass, so they must have some gain? If that is considered rotational mass? Pulleys that is!

[cali yaris]

I can handle the shipping to Australia. 10 pounds shipped USPS Priority International is about $60. (I'm guessing it would be about 10 pounds packed).

sorry Richard,maybe i am just getting to excited. instead of an axle back how much hp can be gained from full 2'' header back exhaust.

[richardholdener]

The real gains from underdrive pulleys comes not from the change in weight but from a reduction in the speed of the accessories. This assumes the pulleys have changed dimension (smaller on crank or larger on accessory). From my testing on other applications, a lighter weight pulley will offer little if any power gain-you need to slow down the speed of the water pump, ps pump, alt etc.. to realize significant gains.

[richardholdener]

The 120 wheel hp run was made with no exhaust after the custom downpipe, so that is about as free flowing as you can get.

Ok if someone could please add me to the list then = )

[PETERPOOP]

Yah if there is any confusion, the intake manifold he did on the 120whp run isn't the version we will be getting.

He emailed me this awhile ago when I asked him if i could reach 120whp with underdrive pulley, lightweight alt pulley, lightweight waterpump pulley, AEM intake, axleback...

"The 120 hp run was made to see if we could reach that power level. The mods included light weight oil, a custom version of the intake tuned speficially for that purpose and a custom downpipe withno cat and no cat-back exhaust. We also tuned the length of the CAI/MAF assembly so it is doubtful that you will reach the 120 wheel hp level with the mods you described."

I don't think it's to the wheels.

[richardholdener]

Did anyone add this gentleman to the list? Test Yaris is being delivered tonight so we can start on production intake tomorrow. Will keep you posted and suply photos as soon as it is ready.

"Kou" has to do it since he's thread maker. Unless a mod will do it until Kou signs on and realizes this..

Can't wait! Can't wait! Can't wait!

[kou]

he has been added.
