  • Word of advice never work on your car on Sundays and always give yourself more time then anticipated. This install nothing went right and it was so frustrating! I was almost in tears from the frustration.

    Simple question, offtopic: where the PCV valve is located, I think I have to pull intake manifold off again, I need to replace that one as well :)

    What additional AN fittings did you need ? How many AN3 and 4. I have some but want to make I have enough.

    • @phothrottle
      @phothrottle  2 года назад

      You will need 3 (an3 to an4) if you are doing the evap delete and 5 if you are retaining the evap.
      2 for the evap
      1 for the intake vacuum
      2 for the bov

    I can't believe I'm only 10min from AMS :-) Nice Mani - but for sure it's not as simple as it looks to replace it. especially when you missing parts or it won't fit because you need different IC Pipes

      Yeah I was so frustrated. Need some custom piping made. I will share with you in the next vlog.

      @@phothrottle please do ! So to run aftermarket Mani you need custom piping ? Btw why are you going with different manifold ? Just wondering

      @@StreetDrivenDaily yeah I would recommend custom piping for proper fitment. I went with after market because of future plans for the build and wanted a different look.

    Great looking manifold. A question from a fellow GTR owner, do you really need that good looking intake? My goal with my GTR is to take it to 800whp on oem motor & tranny and my tuner told me that the oem manifold can hold way more than that. Keep up the good work

    • @StreetDrivenDaily
      @StreetDrivenDaily 3 года назад +1

      I think extra 150hp for me be enough! that's my goal Next year- this summer I'm just enjoying the car.

      To answer your question, no you do not need this manifold for power under 1k whp. I have very similar goals as yours. This is more of a cosmetics upgrade. Thanks for watching the vlogs and the comment!

      For me to have a reliable sports car, I use mine as a daily, even when buying groceries. Why buy a expensive car when the garage is enjoying it right.heheh

      @@ajae4616 that depends. I put 5k a year. It's a 09 and just hit 69k miles. If decide to keep the car for very long time, you don't wanna wreck crap ton of miles on it. I still think that when owning a GT-R you need a shit bucket as a daily. For example i can't take my GT-R to downtown Chicago. Too many potholes

    My shop told me when I ordered my I/C pipe I would need a adapter pipe when I order the manifold.

      That is 100% correct. I decided to do a custom piping. It will be in the next vlog.

    Love the 80s music, thought Molly Ringwald was going to display this manifold in a pink 👙 bikini. But you ended up with the Weird Science going sideways vibe 😂 Amazing that a company can make high end accessories, yet, knowing the vehicle it’s supposed to go in, can still drop the ball on providing the proper fittings/hardware. It would make you assume the engineers were all shitfaced in a dark room smokin’ weed making the kit, thinking of how they could make it awkward as watching a bulldog fuck a football… ‘nuff said.
