I've got an 02 GT, and am looking to replace the intake manifold, however I cannot afford the 1300 p-51, so what are my other options? Thanks

Not much.

Unless you have a forged bottom end and at least camshafts you don't need to worry about a forged bottom end.

If you are going to build a car n/a, do so in this order:

Gears/ u/d pulleys
Exhaust boltons
Intake boltons
cam
heads
forged bottom end
intake manifold.

Doing so will allow you toi make the most of your current setup. The only exception is if you are running nitrous. In that case, build the bottom end just after the camshafts.

so I was looking online, and i see this intake called Professional Products Typhoon Intake Manifold... now supposably this is a copy of Edelbrocks manifold. If this is true, then it would be a good purchase, correct? And if I did purchase one of these is it worth it to purchase the one with the plenum attached or just purchase the manifold, and use my own Accufab TB & Plenum? Or how about Power Plus intakes? Are they the same thing? Thanks

yea...HP doesn't come cheap, espessially on 2V's

djdalfaro

yeah... but the damn thing looks like a tank... will that fit under a stock gt hood?

Morbid Intentions

as far as I can see it should (from what it says) at the most you would have to get a hood (I think)

You're ggoing to put your peak power where you can't reach it with that thing.

Not how on Code's car he has a light, hi-po valvetrain to allow him to reach 7,200+rpms where the intake is REALLY helping him. Bharsen, if you get it, expect your low end to be GONE GONE GONE on a stockish motor.
