Im just curious is to if this would work without problems? I havent seen it done and was jus curious. It looks to have better flow then the s4 intake..

 

TII LIM - 4 Ports

N/A LIM - 6 Ports

Can be done. Need to match the TII LIM to the shape of the N/A LIM. See threads on 6-port turbo engines.

 

Yes.

Flows more, as said it needs ported to match.


If your motor is ported, then swapping the turbo mani's on will give you very good gains.

 

ONLY if your engine is radically ported with either a HUGE street port or a bridgeport will swapping to TII manifolds of be any benefit. And you will need a standalone to tune it.

 

you really can't beat the s5 n/a intake manifolds (with working aux ports and VDI) for the broadest usable horsepower and torque.

 

I am more than likely going to swap my s4 intake to the s5 and not even worry about the TII intake. I was jus wondering if it would work.

Thanks

 

sorry to dig up a thread havent had a chance to post on this topic yet. so to put TII intake on my gxl i would need to get it tuned?

 

*Cough*

 

sorry that totally isnt what i meant to say why would you need a tune if your still using a n/a maf?

 

At that point, you probably won't be running the stock AFM, even yet, stock ports. Really no point unless you read what Aaron said... If you do put them on the stock N/A engine, it will most likely make you lose some power. No auxiliary ports, shorter intake so power suffers at higher RPM, ect....

 

yea im just talking about throwing the turbo intakes on a n/a

 

Sigh.

THE ONLY REASON TO PUT TII INTAKE MANIFOLDS ON AN NA IS TO EITHER TURBOCHARGE THE ENGINE, OR BECAUSE YOUR PORTS ARE SO AGGRESSIVE THAT THEY OVERWHELM THE NA INTAKE MANIFOLDS.

So unless you have a monstrous street port (and I mean the kind that makes peak power at 10,000 RPM) or a bridge port, you will gain a big fat NOTHING from putting the TII intake manifold on the NA engine. In fact, you will probably lose top end due to the shorter runners and crappier transition to the port runners, and you will lose a bunch of low end due to having the aux ports open all the time.

 

I have the turbo II intake on my s4 N/A block which is turbocharged. I did not port match the intake and it feels great, no problems that I notice. Do you think there would be a gain by porting it, or rather a loss in low end and gain at the high end? The drive-ability under 3k is the same just as it was when N/A. Hope im not thread jacking .

 

people have done this before. it works out fine.
