What is a higher peak HP going to get me? Nothing. You spend a fraction of a second at peak HP. However, every time I shift, I'm in the 5k-8k rpm range for 3-6 seconds. Where do you think the most torque and horsepower is needed?
I know the ITR manifold doesn't fit...w/out modification, but you claimed "oem" so I gave you a better oem part reference.
If the engine was built for mid to high then that is the wrong manifold. If it was built for best mid range response then that is the correct manifold, but since the true essence of an NA engine was covered and you've replied to it, then your happy, I'm happy.
