Thumbs up KYOKUTO 12A - 48 ida Weber- Intake manifold - Info ?

Yes yes -

No big story , but its fun :-)

I suddenly got my hands on this one , its a 12a , 48 ida weber, intake manifold .
And its got the name/ brand " KYOKUTO " on it .

So i just wonder out of curiosity , if anyone knows sumtin bout it , is it from an "ancient" black magic japanese tuner company , or just some wal mart type out of the masses .

Heres a pic ,

Thanks !

its like the old sigma intakes, its a shorter design than racingbeat so there is more top end power. the carb flange is swapped so the carb linkage pulls in the opposite direction making linkage a pita . nice find tho

Hey .

Thanks for sharing info guys . !

I used the manifold on my 12a full bridge , for about 10k miles , i guess my porting was kind a mild , because the engine felt strong at low rpm`s , even though i used carbons , short intake ,large venturis , etc.

Not much beef on this manifold for enlarging runners etc .

I think the manifold is from a aussi car , because of the inverted flange , but it mached my accelrator cable pretty well on my Rx-626 .

Yo yo .
