EBay: Yaris Intake Manifold

Who knew?

Not saying I'd buy it, just saying it's there. I see two different prices... $850 and $1050.

No, no, no... you've got it all wrong. It is made of all of the Zage turbos that exploded.

Yaris GSR huh??

You'd lose some bottom end, but gain some top end with that... if it even fits.

Would be great for a nitrous setup.

There's nothing on AC Autotechnic's Web site about even selling intake manifolds, and the applications I've seen are all Honda/Acura—as in the Integra GSR ...

Ashley, there were 3 listed... Yaris B16, Yaris GSR and something else. I think they may have adapted the sales pages from another OH SO POPULAR manufacturer.

39... do you smell fraud?

I would say you wouldn't want to spray more than a 75 shot... ever, and it would probably best to keep it around a 50 shot for engine longevity.

Hondas used to bend rods with less than a 75 shot on a stock motor, and I haven't seen what the rods or pistions look like in these engines.

If you had a progressive controller you might be able to run a 75 shot all the time and ramp up to it, but just the simple switch on to the 75 shot would most likely hurt the engine pretty quickly.

With the quality of that manifold it shouldn't cost more than 200 bucks

Exactly .. saw these a while ago .. I cracked up at the GSR and B16. It's totaly square itself. I think some curves are needed for better airflow.

Our rods looks like pencils on our motor and will be the first thing to go with NOX. might as well buy an Xb manifold and make an adapter plate. To bad Tricky Dicky pulled all our chains and never produced the intakes or turbo set up.
