Facelift Intake Manifold to Pre-Facelift
Hi,
I currently drive an automatic 2012 Toyota GT86. The red intake that comes on the facelift manual 86s/BRZs has recently been on my mind. Would this be a straightforward swap onto my car? Does MT/AT make an issue? I read that the ECU bracket needs to be modified, or the stock ECU bracket from the facelift can also be mounted and used? Are there any negatives / cons of doing this? As far as I can see the positives: - Looks better - Small upgrade over what I have now (including a few extra HP, though this is not necessarily what I am chasing, just would be nice). Thanks in advance for any advice. My primitive knowledge of cars told me there wouldn't be many differences between AT and MT apart from transmission stuff but I find more and more new things every day. |

Is there any actual data indicating the red intake manifold makes any extra power?

Not sure if anyone had just tested the intake. It was the intake and exhaust changes in 17 that gave the extra 5hp.

Pretty sure it doesn't, unless you're ballooning the plastic intake with 50 PSI on a 6266 and nitrous

https://86-agent.com/?p=1003 Obviously 2HP is a very very tiny gain, this is not what I am hanging onto. Just strengthens the "why not" argument I guess. |

It's a straight forward install, but you'll need some parts to be 100% oem
https://www.ft86club.com/forums/show...ostcount=20969 800105230 (Sensor bolt) 14047AB150 (ECU Bracket) left side and the fuel cover --> Right side sorry dont remember the part number. 16175AA520 (gasket), and maybe some hose clamps.

Just paint your stock one red and call it a day.

4yrs running fine and haven't noticed anything strange. I installed it around the same time I got lighter wheels so I couldn't tell ya if I noticed a difference. Probably best to just leave it stock.
