there are no meaningful gains to be had by swapping any of the Turbo 13b manifolds. Swapping to an FD UIM (which requires the S5 LIM and a custom spacer, and portmatching) produced somewhere in the neighborhood of 3-4 hp on a 385 hp motor. You'd be better of spending the money on CF mirrors, or the time, improving your driving technique.

You can always port it to match the gasket. That is what i did on my n/a.
