is it bad to put on a intake manifold and go long distance alot because i live in gainesville and i travel to miami about every two or three months. my step dad is a mechanic for like 30 years and he said i am making a mistake by putting on the manifold. he said it's not for travel. is that true can you travel yes or no. he also said it tends to get very hot. should i get a better cooling system??

 

what?

 

I don't think an intake manifold has anything to do with the distance that you drive. If you get your engine tuned correctly, it shouldn't matter how long you run it.

 

what do i need to do (as far as performance parts) so i can drive as long as i want?

 

You should be fine driving long distances with an intake manifold as long as it is good quality.

 

IS OBX A GOOD BRAND AS FAR AS INTAKE MANIFOLD TO GO LONG DISTANCE?

 

Does OBX even make an intake manifold? I went on their website and all they carry are turbo manifolds. My opinion is a Skunk 2 manifold.

 

getting an obx mani is like getting an APC intake........just a bad idea.

 

that sucks because i bought the obx manifold like a month ago but i haven't put it in yet. so then i should sell it and get the skunk2 manifold? what do you think?

 

post a pic of the OBX one.
