spec.B452 Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 You will need a lot of other parts to make that work. I would pass. Also, $500.00 seems a bit high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xander_X Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 I understand where you're coming from; atheistically, the plastic manifold isn't much to look at it. But I assure you, it can take a lot of power. Also, if you think about it, it has a performance advantage over a cast manifold as the plastic ones are smooth inside. Smoother than having a cast manifold polished. So there's that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dujo Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 Plastic manifold is lighter too. Also note that if you swap from tgv to tgv-free, I'm pretty sure you will need a tune for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
