What intake manifold are you going to run? I don't know of anyone who makes a manifold with NA power in mind.
I found
this website and have been thinking about making my own instead of using/modifying a HO manifold. Anyone make intake flanges for the LD9? I got a friend at work who can do all the welding for me, I just need to get the materials and figure out a design that will maximize NA performance.

id love to try out a built manifold, make it all tuned in and everything... yeah.
someday ill probably drop the $800 on one but not now. lol
Fetter can get flanges with a cnc transition to the head. Like i said before, build a mani like wentzel. He gained 20 hp
i'll stay phenolic and reduce some of the heat soak.
wenzel's intake is extremely weird LOL
its so weird his tb is located down by the front bumper.
but hey, it worked.
^^^ Longer runners can take advantage of stronger harmonic pulses.
I have no signiture
Idk if there are pics but it was basically an equal header on the intake side with a merge collector.
Pretty much...Your welcome. lol

lmao it looks like a damn honda
so how well does this intake work for you?
20 hp gain from just an intake swap on a N/A car? Dam!
GMR has got nothing on this
wow i didnt see that. i like this can we get them fabed for the rest of us? lol
im going to run a poll...
whats more impressive to you guys?
a.) 12's all motor
b.) 12's turboed
me personally? all motor.
Dont care.
12's are 12's.

It depends on what you want out of the car, 12's turboed would still be reasonably streetable, and you could run around out of boost all day. 12's all motor is impressive, but all the car could do was get towed to the track, makes some runs, and get towed home.
Paying someone to install parts and bragging about it being fast, is like watching someone bang your wife and being proud to raise their kids.
LOL paul is going to prove that incorrect this summer, tim.
all pauls car needs to be streetable is a carpet, back seat, and street tires. thats it.
I would bet that it wouldn't be the nicest thing to take on a road trip though, lol

Power steering would help big.

Its not that big of a help at speed.

It is daily driving though...
paul daily drove the car for over a year with no power steering.
it does suck (and it'd be easy as hell to put PS on the damn thing). lol but paul for some reason just doesnt want to tear the motor down to give me the cam to modify.
he also put on a larger lumina z34 steering wheel, it helps out.
i run my daily with no power steering. its really no big deal, grow some muscles boys. i just taught a girl how to drive stick in the car a week ago, no biggie.
