total cost is £185 + gasket set

once you have cams and a sports cat then this mod would help

a quick thanx to markv for spotting the following info

the rolling road results from the usa

Dyno tests:

GM's Stock 2.2 Intake manifold HP Best: 138.61 @ 5500
CED's Kit 2.4 Kit Intake manifold HP Best: 151.73 @ 6300
Gain: 13.12HP

GM's Stock 2.2 Intake manifold TQ Best: 140.00 @ 4400
CED's Kit 2.4 Kit Intake manifold TQ Best: 142.12 @ 4900
Gain: 2.12TQ

Now keep in mind not looking at MAX peak (thought they increased as well) @ 6200 RPM there is a 21Hp and 18Tq increase.

just to add.......

that's with a 58mm throttle body, not a 68mm tb

hopefully will be posting my rolling road remap results this time next week dunno..

That's a good increase in the mid to top end torque, does it say if there where any other mods?

Should be interesting to see the results of your remap, where you taking it?

2.4 mani and TB looks as though it could be a cheap alternative to ITB's in fact the power curve reminds me of the ITB's the way there is no real increase until after std peak power then it just keeps going linearly.

the usa car had an intake and cat back exhaust dunno..

13hp from the inlet alone sounds good to me!

Is that manifold plastic?

 

[vocky]

Is that manifold plastic?

it's made from the same stuff as the standard inlet manifold, which is some sort of plastic

Does the throttle sit higher on the 2.4 inlet manifold, or is it dimensionally the same as the 2.2?
I expect if the adapter plate was used it would sit higher.

Reason i ask is something i have had an idea on for ages, but noticed the standard inlet pipe from air box is touching the sound insulation under bonnet.
May be able to mill off the bottom of the throttle, will have to have a look but i dont expect much if anything.

 

[vocky]

if a 2.2 or 2.4 tb is used then no spacer required, it will sit at the same height as standard inlet manifold

Cheeers, off to do some shopping now.
Collect my other goody in the morning, measure up and see whats needed.

 

[baldie87]

i have just been reading through all of this and i think we should do a group buy becuase alot of peeps are interested and depending on how long they take to fit should do somthing like the mini precat meet thing dunno..

 

[JohnnyN]

I would be very interested in this. Mr. Vocky would have to be there to guide us.

cheers..

 

[vocky]

There will soon be a uk supplier of the 2.4 inlet manifolds, a group buy from them might also be possible dunno..

Ere Neil!! A bit off topic but relavant, you know the trumpet in the top (lid) of the airbox, have you heard if its best to leave that one in place or remove it? I read that it is there to cause a swirl in the induction pipe??

[vocky]

best to chuck it in the bin

it's a restrictor to quieten the intake roar :roll:

 

[JohnnyN]

I removed mine yonks ago. It was something that I read by that chap who has been robbing your knowledge!!

Nudge nudge wink wink!!

:roll:
