What's the most restrictive part of an SE intake?

Just heard there is a restricted part....


Could you use the second gen intake setup to remove this restriction?


With RB's long primary exhaust, and a K&N drop in filter, would there be any restriction in the intake?


Just wondering....

And could you stick a compelte 89-91 intake (ported) onto an SE motor?

Thanx!

The barn-door style AFM is far and away the most restricted part of te GSL-SE intake. I believe there's a forum member who was working on a mod to fix that.

I don't remeber who it was tho...
Try doing a search?

the only part that is restricted on a SE is the AFM and i dont think that you can swap it from a 2g, the only way is by getting a haltech or a megasquirk ecu that doesnt require a AFM, but i hear that you can swap a 89-91 intake manifold on a SE with no problem.
