We've learned with proper tuning more air can be turned into gains! Many tuners that have tuned z33/z34s are just messing with the fuel map!
If you didn't know that you have a lot to learn about the potential of a proper tune!
Because on average and I will say with 99.8 % confidence that a majority of tunes are just that!
So for the NA junkies a few ponies on top of a better looking aluminum manifold is a plus plus!
Then someone needs to make a z34-R decal! For the ricer in us all!

The problem is it isn't actually a larger manifold, the CSA of the gtr runner is smaller, the runner is longer, and with the new lower the air has to fight some hard transition angles now too, as well as some very short profile changes in the runner. the gtr runner is not a huge oval it is actually just a straight tube that is cross sectioned at an angle where the flange is. It is a manifold designed specifically for boost and I wouldn't be suprised if you actually see losses on an NA car. It is designed to increase low and midrange to spool turbo's quicker.
