Hey fellas,

I've been using my d16y4 Intake Manifold with my turbo setup for a while now, just fine... however ive been reading some people on forums saying the y7 (u.s) manifold is not good for turbo setups, should i be worried?

also does anyone know how much cc our y4 injectors give? 190cc or 240cc?

unless your looking at making more power why bother? Agree with Claymore

The next step up is the Skunk 2 IM but this will give you more high end power by sacrificing some low/mid.

the US had a different intake manifold on the Y7. rest assured, your manifold is equiv to the Y8 manifold. Its good enough for your goals.

thats right

i changed from y4 to y8 only so i can run the 2wire iacv on the throttle body

?? so the y8 intake manifold is no different from the y4's? i thought the y8's were bigger like the y1's

=/ ur kidding me right? have a check for me [ricer]. i have a y4 (non vtec) and a y1 (vtec) sitting here and im pretty sure the y1 has larger throttle bodies. i always thought sohc vtec motors like the y1 and y8 had larger throttle bodies then other non vtec sohc motors.

hrrrm the plenum looks small on the y1
i cant really compare throttle bodies or runners as one engine is complete and ones in the car... hard to compare side by side lol

throttle bodies maybe slightly smaller/larger, but plenums and IM's are nearly the same.

In the US, the y7 plenum is a top feed, with TB located middle top. Its a shitty design.
