Default this possible

Throw a GS-R intake manifold with the secondaries onto my B16a?
Maybe bypass the ECU switch and use something else like an rpm switch?

Now that I think about it I don't care about low end power, so why not just throw a regular manifold on with shorter runners? Is that what the ITR manifold is?

The top bolts are taller than GS-R bolts. Don't bother. Get an ITR manifold.

RPM swtiches are for ghetto people who can't wire.

ok cool.
This thing just has way too much low end pull, I want to trade it off for top end power. 4-1 header and exhaust with bigger than 1.5 inch piping should help. I bet that is half the problem.

ITR manifold has a bigger surge tank and primaries.

I didn't even know B16s have low end.

mine does.
Like twice as much as my D, I can launch it easily at 1000-1200 rpms.
It feels like a V6 pulling around. :ugh:

that's what 1.5 inch exhaust does.
