I know of Richard from my mustang days, you can believe what he says but, pics of the actual product might help sway some thinking about it.

upload to a image hosting site and usually during the upload they have resize options. imageshack.us or tinypic.com are a few

i saw that in the siphon magazing... anyone know what happened to them, they just stopped publishing?!

kou · 10-25-2008, 10:11 PM

no more siphon magazine this issue was the last.i am just guessing the same company is producing the yaris manifold.

If the manifold turns out to be that good i'm sure Richard will be making as many as he can sell! He surely needs to recoup his R&D costs somehow.

The only way I could see a great manifold not being continued is if it costs more to make than what the market is willing to pay.

Well if its a great manifold and profitable, why would Richard stop at just one (short) production run?

I would be interested in an intake that had a flange for a larger throttle body. Anyone who has installed an intake on our cars sees how tiny the throttle body is on our motors. I think If we were to swap to a larger throttle body off like a TC or a corolla then there would be a much more noticible difference in HP

richardholdener · 10-26-2008, 10:05 PM

The prototype intake was made with a flange to accept the larger Xd throttle body. The throttle body upgrade was only worth 1-2 hp-not enough to justify the expense of purchasing the new or used throttle body. Since I know whatthe next question will be (we've already covered this), the larger Xd throttle body will bolt onto the stock intake but sealing will be an isue since the hole in th eintake is much smaller than the hole in the throtle body. Ditton fo rthe rubber o-ring throttle body gasket. Besides, you will need to enlarge hole in th eintake which will be difficult since there is little wall thickness. An adapter plate can be made to facilitate the swap, but again cost versus power gain is not very favorable.

I thought there was a plate for that?

ZING · 10-27-2008, 06:14 PM

ANd this would work on my '09 LB 1.3L engine, yes?

richardholdener · 10-27-2008, 07:26 PM

Intake has only been tested on 1.5L. NOt sure if 1.3L shares same intake config.
