GTR conversion manifold?

plenums and spacers worked very well on the vq35de ... Our plenum has yet to be challenged by any aftermarket plenum... If that fits i would imagine boost applications would see a great boost in HP.. not sure about NA tho

HEH? the reason that upper halfs and spacers worked well on the de was because the stock plenum was crap... they remedied that with twin throttlebodies. the only reason that the DE plenum is better for boost is because it is actually made out of metal and most of the friggen turbo kits on the market are only made for the single throttlebody cars, the new HR and VHR turbo'd cars make heeps of power more than the old DE's. Not to mention u guys had a connecting rod problem didn't u?

Either way NO WAY IN HELL IS A DE PLENUM GOING ON MY VHR

It's ok man, you can relax lol.. No one's going to force a DE Plenum on your car since it won't fit and will require reprogramming and lots of headache lol
