well im just basically wondering would getting the upper intake manifold and lower intake manifold from supersix motorsports do anything for my car. i know it would be alot better if got the power pack with heads and cams but i dont have that kinda money so i was just going to get them in peices when i can afford them. i was wondering if i got both upper and lower intakes would it do anything for my car and would i have a problem installing them without getting anything else on my car. all the other engine components are stock...

yes i think u will at least gain about 15-20hp

and u will fell a difference

 

im just trying to decide bc i know all the bolt on bbk mods arent going to do much for my car and im going to get gears and i was thinking about this too and buy the heads and cams later when i can...

 

ya bolt-ons arent really gonna get u any hp

because ive gotten BBK 56mm Throttle Body, Aluminum Driveshaft, 1/2" Intake Manifold Spacer, 180 Degree Thermostat, SCT XCal 3 Tuner , Custom Port and Polish Upper Intake Manifold, BBK Underdrive Pulley Kit, Aftermarket Cold Air Intake, 3" Exhaust Tips, PYPES Stainless 2.5" True Dual Converter Back, w/o Cats, Pypes Street Pro Mufflers, Screamin Demon Ignition Coil, 10mm Livewire Spark Plug Wires

and i think ive only gained like 20hp from all of these, lol, but since im done with my bolt-ons the next thing for me is gears/tlok

but ya go with gears/tlok and then later get the heads/cam

 

dang thats a lot of money you spent there on all those... lol. yeah my goal is by christmas to get gears, tlok, this upper and lower intake if i feel like it would be worth it and get lowering springs. then be saving for heads. i still need more advice on this manifold upper and lower intake so if anyone else has an opinion let me know thanks.

 

oh and would it affect my mpg at all?

 

split port intake swap will not affect your fuel efficiency. if i were you, i'd get the whole supersix power pack with the heads cam and intake.

 

I think he is talking about the stage 2 single port intake

 

im talking about the third one down on the link... the one for my year if it will give me any extra performance with it being ported and polished?

 

It may give you a little but the problem is the intake and heads work as a team if you widen the intake but the heads aren't ported they still can't get any more air just like if you port the heads and not the intake you won't get the full benefit of the mod for it to really work well you would need intake heads and some exhuast work (which you already have) and maybe a TB but I don't know.

if the intake is ported to match a 56 mm TB then I would assume you would need that too but I could be wrong

 

ohh ok gotcha so i would pretty much have to save up enough to get the power pack then...

 

That is really you best bet I would say

I would guess that you would see some minor gains from just doing the intake but it would be dissapointing for the price

I've read some reviews from people with the powerpacks and I can't remember anyone being upset on any of the other forums

 

yeah see i dont have 1800 to do the whole pack so i was just going to buy it in pieces but i guess i might as well save up for the whole pack...

 

trust me I feel your pain

 

and is it true wat it says "that u will gain 80-100 hp"

 

From what I read the gains that supersix posts are right around what the average gain is some people make a little more and some a little less

 

damn that badass

hey i kind of copied ur sig. a little bit cuz i liked how it was lined up, hope u dont mind, lol

 

nope

 

i had a little bit more but my mAx is 500 words , lol, cuz i still had to add th visul but that why i change my sig. pic cuz u could see em there

 

yeah thats a good amount of horsepower to add to a v6... about what i would think if ur going to spend that much.

 

I would save and get the whole package. You will not gain a whole lot with just a ported intake and stock heads and cam. It will be worth it to wait it out.

 

def. those three mods compliment eachother a lot.

 

alright thats what im going to do. ill keep yall posted when i get it done but it might be awhile
