Intake Mani
For those of you interested in an aftermarket intake manifold for the 2ZR take a look here:
http://www.scionlife.com/forums/view...798109#3798109 Have 2 people out of 10 so far and Im sure it'll come out cheaper with even more buyers.

For all you that don't remember about the infamous Manifold, let me remaind you.
Richard Holdener (A well known performance articles and books writter) developed a few months ago a custom Intake Manifold for the US Scion xD and posted some amazing Dyno graphs showing gains of up to 25 wheel HP combing his manifold with a free flowing exhaust. He did claim if I remeber correctly that 15whp out of the 25whp came from the manifold intake only. ***In case you don't know, the scion xD share the exact same engine as the Yaris TS. 1.8L 2ZR-FE*** For our small engines a gain of 15whp coming from just a bolt on part is huge... This all Manifold madness got cold after several weeks with no updates from Richard, but looks like he has showed up again. Hopefully he can post here some more details about a possible group buy... I would be down for one unit if this actually happens. Last edited by CASTREX; 10-24-2008 at 03:31 AM. |

Me and Castrex were talking, would you mind being a third party for the prospective buyers Garm? That way everyone can feel a little more confident putting there money into this

Now that I know the Yaris has the 1.8L from the Xd-I will certainly be more inclined to produce the Xd (and TS) intake and share other testing info that we gained on the dyno. Be hapy to have Garm provide unbiased info on test run with intake.

Yeap, the Yaris TS comes with the 1.8L 2ZR engine.
Hey maybe that's your next project after the manifolds and the turbo... A 2ZR swap into the US Yaris... it should be an easy fit. Please share any info you have regarding the 1.8 engine... Since this is such a new engine no one other than you as seriusly messed with it. I'm running a custom cat back exhaut and a Fuijta CAI on my car. NST is currently working on an Underdrive lightweight pulley kit for the car as well... All this and your manifold... yeah! |

This manifold would also cover the 2009 Corolla, yes? With three different cars supporting the part, I think ten minimum sales would be easy to hit.

2009 Corolla and Matrix both come with the same engine. I will go look into a Corolla engine bay to verify if the layout of is the same. It should be. |

this sounds good but in germany we need a "ABE"..it's like a part licence that allows you to build this manifold streetlegal in the TS
without this "ABE" it isn't a good idea installing this manifold |

During a normal inspection would they notice the intake is aftermaket?
These kind of problems happen in the US and in many places.. Some legislations are harder than other. In some places as long as you pass the emission test they would not car... that's the most important after all... I don't think that if you are stopped by a Police, they will go as far as inspecting your engine bay... or do they over there? You can always remove the bolt on parts before an inspection... Just like alot people do when taking the car for a warranty inspection... they remove the cold air intakes to avoid any problems... It should be a matter of minutes to instal-remove this. Just saying!!! |

sorry, but what is that?? Photos?
and what are "whp"? Is this the Power that are on the wheels or the enginepower like our euopean 133PS??? if that is wheelpower, my TS have 103,1 PS on the wheels and 136 on the engine.

The duyno test was run on a Dynojet chassis dyno (often refered to as rolling road in Europe). Measurement is taken at the wheels.

What is what? The Intake Manifold? This is also refered sometimes as the intake plenum... This intake manifold is the replacement for the plastic unit on our cars. You know the plastic piece with the 4 plastic runners that feed the air to the cylinders. As explained by Richard on the official thread over at scionlife.com there will be no pictures of the actual manifold since there are no production units yet. He has a prototype that does not releflect whet the production unit will look like. Just so you have an idea, I'm posting a a picture of another manifod that Richard developed for the Nissan Versa. Regarding the power gains... yes WHP= horse power at the wheels. The 2zr-fe is rated at different hp levels depending on the car model and market. From 128 hp on the xD, 132 on the corolla and 136hp on th Yaris. Diffrences are mostly due to the way the power is meassured... One thing is concistent. This Engine seems to produce close to 120 hp to the wheels. I've seen a few dyno graps that prove it. Richard's manifold alone produced around 12-13 extra hp to the wheels and when matched to to a Cold air intake and a free flowing exhaust it produced the amazing figure of 26 hp extra. For the price, i believe those power gains are great... No in order to get thi manifold produced we need at least 10 people willing to buy it.... |
