Incresing flow?

Hey guys im looking for ways to increase the airflow on my fd engine.
Now iv got a greddy rad and front mount intercooler, removed the 2ndrt butterflys and ported the plenum.. is there any other way to increase the flow without porting the engine? was thinking of modding and fitting the cosmo plenum as there bigger standard and cn be ported even more, what else would i need to do this and does anyone have any pics or dyno pics to show the improvment?

cheers

welcome to the board.

what is your current setup? (turbo, exhaust, etc.) you have to be at a MAJOR power level that would have included large porting and a larger turbo before your stock intake is going to come close to choking your engine.

if you're looking to get more pep out of an otherwise stock setup, then you're probably better off getting a lightweight flywheel and modest exhaust system.
