Just wondering about how much more airflow and resulting hp I would be looking at with an aftermarket intake manifold? And what would be a good brand? Thanks!

 

estimate no more than 10 hp(at the crank). Skunk2, Edelbrock are the top two brands I've heard good things about, though I'm sure someone else knows of other brands.

 

what kind of motor are you putting it on??

 

hp gains vary from the mods you already have done to the motor. If stock motor, and just the manifold, expect like 4-6 crank HP. With CAI, and exhuast expect 7-10 or so.

 

D16Y8

 

I got a D17 and they don't make an intake manifold for my engine, goodluck on your's

 

There is 1 company that makes an intake manifold for out generation civicboy, KMS, but heard very mixed reviews leaning toward the "DO NO BUY" side. Apparently there is a way to use D16Y8 manifold on a D17 engine with sligh modifications but I haven't found out yet how exactly that works.

 

I rather take the 'for sure' route if ya get my drift, how many bad reviews? cause you could give someone a million dollars, and they bitch that the gov't is gonna take too much out of it

my point- there's always gonna be someone to bitch and complain

 

lets rate the bad reviews compared to the good reviews at about 60% to 40% respectively. 7thgencivic.com has more info on the KMS manifold.

 

I'll check it out, I don't like those numbers though
