Intake manifold cover - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

protpibe · 01-24-2014, 10:37 AM

So I snapped one of the clips off of my intake manifold cover. Rather than replacing it with an OEM one, or even a blue one, I was wondering what was out there for aftermarket covers?

I know nameless makes one, which I will probably end up ordering unless there are others out there.

Oh and the Password JDM one

Any others?

The nameless one has the best engineering and will make the most power on the dyno!

I've been laughing for the past two minutes since I read this.

That's the only one I have seen so far. Im sure it's an insignificant amount but is it heavier than the factory one?

Graphs are a week or two out right?

Heard the nameless will deliver more midrange torque and PWJDM for more top end.

Yes, heavier by a few ounces.

I didnt think it would be much.

I just dont think I like the weld lines on it. But still looks neet.

Haha I'm obviously not looking for hp. I broke a clip on the factory one and want to replace it. Was just looking at my options

Are you not aware of the gains a properly engineered intake manifold cover can provide?

I tried to remove mine.. The top 2 clips popped off easy.. But the bottom ones close to the front won't come off with reasonable force.. I feel I will snap something if I pull up any harder.. ?
I noticed lots of slack in the way its mounted.. I think it's vibrating like hell
and adding some noises.. And was curious to what's under the plate.. Any tips for removing..?

I hope @MAPerformance will offer one in the future, have you seen their ALT/AC covers ?

Amazing!

My best advice would be to not remove it. I didn't even know I broke 2 of the clips until I went to go put it back on.

The only things under there are 2 hoses. Vacuum and passenger side PCV I believe

Really dude? I mean sure, it's your money, do what you want with it. But why would you pay to advertise for someone?

I don't know, I guess because I can. Thanks for your concern though...
