Intake manifold

[hotdoghogie]

Ok i know i post alot of things bout TB but i want to get to the bottom of this


someone tell me... what jdm intake manifold will give me good performance... what mods have to be done to it....

if it doesnt do crap dont tell me bout it (I'm wanting somthing to give more air for a mild gring cam)

people put a b16 manifold on http://www.3geez.com/forum/showthread.php?t=49453 thats about as good as its gonna get i think, but the jdm manifolds are no different to the a20's so i read

[A20A1]

B18C5 or B16 will fit.

You might want to look into aftermarket B Series manifolds though.

just make sure you drill a few wholes for intake studs.
they will fit, but the question is what are you going to do with EGR valve?
when you did EFI swap, did you use 86-87 or 88-89 parts?
if you used 86-87 parts, unpluging EGR will cause ECU to trip cel light and it will go into loop mode. if you used 88-89 parts you may get away with it. Some people with 88-89 notticed no performance drop with EGR unpluged. You will still get ECU light, but your ECU may work just fine.

there's no such thing as a "jdm" intake manifold for our cars. the same im is used between all efi a20's and b20's. either the one with the egr or the one without. however, like the others have said, you can use the b16/b18c5 im on your a20 with a little bit of modding to the holes. and with that knowledge, you can use the aftermarket ones which will give you greater gains than the stock. especially if you live here in cali. if you're going to be illegal, might as well get some good power at the same time.

i never swapped my car... i dropped a semi fresh motor because 530,000 miles on an engine doesnt seem to reliable... but ya

the egr valve does?... is it that important?

[mkymonkey]

seems like you need to catch up on your reading :D

You don't really need it if you don't have emissions. whithout one you will never pass emissions.

the only other way to do is try to get JDM or EDM ECU from A20A4 engine. that engine didn't have O2 or EGR valve. With that ECU you can run any intake manifold, and anyother mods without setting off ECU light.

I know people have run B16 Mani's after some modding

[snoopyloopy]

yes we do. remember, arnold stopped the rolling exemption. so now all cars post-1976 have to be smogged every two years unless they're a diesel or a hybrid.

[mkymonkey]

wait what....damn thats what i get for not following the fucking news. so that means in 2 years time i also have to smog our ranchero....and my boss's daughter has to smog her 72 camaro? well that kinda blows

you can't take our ECUS and just zap them. you can't reprogram them. they are Pre-OBD ecus. there are no programs or machines that will reflash them. you would have to upgrade to Obd-1 to do that.

that manifold is better suited for high RPM setups. You will loose a shit low of low end torque.

[hotdoghogie]

o gay... i will just rip the light out... who really needs it

no, no smog on the 72 camaro unless they put a post-75 engine in it. but yeah, the 30 year rolling exemption ended and all post-1975 cars have to get smogged.
