Wow I'm definitely purchasing this for sure. Can this work on my 7AT sam??

Yes, it will work with the 7AT.

$2k for the kit ? :icon14:
all right... let's wait for the testing results.

Considering that the OEM GTR upper plenum is $958 by itself, are you really that surprised?

Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but do stock fuel rails work with this system? ^^
EDIT: Actually, now that I think about it, if the upgraded rails fit in the factory location...that means the factory rails will fit this manifold converter. YESSSSSSS.

The stock fuel rails do not work with our lower manifold. Also, the inside diameter of the stock rails is quite small.

Wait, so the throttle bodies are not in the exact same location, so my MHI TT kit will not work as a bolt on for this?
Also, is the throttle body opening on the manifold same diameter as oem throttle body?
|
The throttle bodies are the same for both the VHR and the VR38DETT. That said, they are in different locations and since we make our own turbo kit as well as this conversion, it's only logical for us to have the appropriate piping available for both to work together. ;)

Good job on the lower intake manifold ! I might be very much interessted into this ! :)
I have two easy question. Would it be possible to know what is the diameter at the exit side of the lower intake manifold ?
Is the Oem fuel rail could work, or not ? *if custom holding bracket were to be made localy.*

Thanks.
For your first question, that would be assuming that the port is a perfect circle, which it is not. That said, the cross sectional area of the port is 1669mm^2.
For your second question, the stock fuel rails are not compatible with this manifold. The crossover is not long enough to span the width of our lower manifold. You could cut the crossover and mounting tabs off the factory rails, weld on A/N fittings and new tabs to make it work, if you really want to.
The thing is, the inside diameter of the factory fuel rail is surprisingly small. As you can see below, we cut the crossover to get a better look at things and they are very small (~5mm =~ 0.197"). While the inside diameters of the rails themselves are 11.25mm as shown in the last picture, the restriction is in the feed lines and crossover.

I already have the cover and intake manifold, but no hardware (bolts, fasteners, screws etc). Can you supply the hardware? Will the adapter work with the oem fuel rail setup? Will the adapter come with new hardware to mate with the VHR?

That is precisely why we offer the various components for the conversion separately. You can purchase the lower manifold by itself along with one of our fuel rail setups (either -6 or -8). For the hardware, it will come with the adapter manifold.
