sorry jeff

yes it is a $100 core charge or you send in an extra set of runners

horns? the plenum bolts the the runners then the throttle body. designed more for turbo cars. i know ITB's could be done, jsut alot more work, worth it? maybe

horns have nothing to do with itb's. Most good after-market intake mani's have horns inside the plenum for each runner. It helps with velocity.

Thanks for the pic, so that means the intake mainfold a 'high-port' and can use the S14 SR FMIC cold pipe?

I've been following this product and talking to the guys a little bit over the last month. I must say, this product is a disappointment. Look at the design and quality or their honda k20 manifold, or that work-of-art 2jz manifold, then this...not that it's bad, but what you get for the price is outrageous. $525 for something that is mostly a modified stock part that you need to send in as a core anyways??? wayyy too much IMO. After seeing that, WhiteGLX and I decided to make one ourselves...I guarentee we can fab up something pretty similar for a lot less money, even if it takes a few tries...I'm sorry, but for $300, this would be decent, but at it's price, its outrageous. No intention of degrading that shop or their products, cause I know they do some pretty cool shit, but after waiting 2 months to see this, I was pretty pissed.


EDIT: Just checked their site, price is actually $575...I thought it was $525, hell maybe it was...even more blasphemous. :EDIT

As far as people asking about velocity stacks or horns, these pics dont really do it justice, the inlets on the adapter plate have a machined radius on them, and the welds are not even an interruption.

Just from seeing the entry point on an SR manifold, it will be close, but slight modification will be needed.

As far as throttle body stuff, contact Xcessive for more information.

Docrice: Sorry you feel that way. Oh, and the 2JZ manifold is beautiful and it is on our Supra.
