turbo intake manifold
Hey guys, I figured it has been a while since I have posted, been busy working and all. Anyways, this has been my lastest mod, and it is nearing completion. The only thing left is to weld on to vacuum nipples for the brake booster and for the pcv hose. I'm hoping to be done soon and get some dyno time for a retune and all and I will post up on the results. A few mods need to be done still, i did the throttle body water jacket removal, and i have to reroute the radiator hose. Anyways, here it is.

scion tc same bolt pattern actually, the difference is our stock TB are 2" inlet (filter side) and around 1 5/8" on the manifold side. This one is 2.5" inlet side and almost 2 1/4 manifold side.

So pardon my n00bishness... this will be to replace the stock plastic intake manifold? Which I'm guessing is the other one on the right. Since the individual outlets are in a different place now (i.e. not curved), how will the throttle body connect to whatever it is that it connects to? I'm guessing the turbo. Anyhow, any explanation would be appreciated (not just by me, but I'm sure there are a few others of us willing to learn!)
Looks great, btw!!

you can see the throttle body installed on the new manifold.
the throttle body does not connect to anything inside the manifold, is just a "butterfly" that lets air get into the intale manifold and then the engine. so if you can find a way to mount it on the new manifold and wire it normally, you have a working unit. |

nice work btw. now if you ever decide to do another manifold would you consider having the inlet tubes at an angle?
meaning as the air travels into the manifold it doesn't have to take a 90* turn but instead kind of flows at a curved angle. do you get the idea, or did i lose you? |

dont u need velocity stacks in the inside of the tube?
and i think u'd have to narrow the inside of the tube down as it goes to the last cylinder... |

well thats good...guess i'll try a different throttle body. 1st half of the sweep it was fine, second part of the sweep it through the codes...
hope you get good flow through the cylinders because i'd be worried bout running poor on cylinders. |

Velocity stacks are never needed. However, they usually will make a little more power, especially NA. But they can also cost power if they suck.
