From what I understand mazda put alot of research into the stock manifolds and they flow best. From the results of swapping intake manifolds it was proven that there are no reliable benefits from doing it.

You should be able to port them out a little

Besides... it wont fit

For n/a manifolds? You have a link for this? I'd like to see it.

BTW, What are you looking at as your budget for your turbo install? I'd be interested to see how it balances out vs. a full swap.

This will not fit on a 6-port N/A intake manifold with a generic adapter. You would need at least a 3 inch tall adapter to make it work, not to mention input for secondary injectors.

However if you may use a small adapter to make it fit onto an S4 or S5 turbo lower intake manifold.

Put a film of vaseline on both sides of that new gasket when you put it back on. Or put a film of red rtv on the removable part to ease later removal. DON'T use any *glue* type adhesive when you reinstall the gasket.
