I mean there is nothing to lose from it. I am planning on modifying my intake and exhaust next, thought might as well also do the manifold.

If you're gonna go through the trouble of making the manifold work, its probably a better idea to do the intake and exhaust upgrades at the same time instead of at 3 different times. Might as well make that work not go to waste.

Yeah, that's what I meant by might as well do the manifold together with the exhaust and intake. I want to do them all together

The grand total rated increase for the facelift cars was 5HP. That includes all the changes to the intake, manifold, exhaust, valves and tune. Thinking you are getting anything even remotely measurable out of just that manifold is optimistic at best. It does look much nicer though!
Do you have the ability to tune? If not you are probably wasting your time and possibly asking for nothing but problems as the stock tune will not be setup for this manifold.

Isn't it heavier too? Be careful not to raise that CoG too much!

I thought there was an issue where the pre-facelift DI ECU bracket (which grounds it) wouldn't bolt onto the new intake manifold

Of course in this case theres no real point in persuing an AT motor since it uses the exact same black plastic manifold as every prior year. |

The MY17 has bespoke ECU/Fuel rail covers. Just bolt them on and it’s fine. Or a bit of cutting and the MY13s fit. Or one can use the Verus ECU brackets that work on all Gen1s.
