I have a single turbo FD. I have both a RE and a REW intake.
RE - upper, lower, and throttle body
REW - same
Question: Which should I use?

 

If you use the RE manifold on a FD you are going to have to port/gasket match it because the RE intake runners are like 5mm larger than the FD. I don't know the effects of it if you don't port match them but to me it wouldn't be good for flow having a larger port going into a smaller one. Seems like the air would be hitting a 5mm wall going into the motor can't be good for flow.

 

If you can't look at it and make your decision...should you really worry about?




single turbo FD or some parts to make one??? what'd you go get the other day...a brother is curious

 

I have the upper and lower, and my intake ports on the motor are ported (fairly large). Port matching the lower intake to the motor is not a problem. I just happen to like the look of the RE intake, and wondered if there is anything specific that I need to know before I start getting into it.

 

Intake is at Sung's right now, motor is in my garage - so I can't look at it tonight.

Bought a whole motor complete for my car - with a F9, MSD's, radiator, intercooler, turbo, etc.
Also got a spare complete Cosmo setup, and a spare complete FD setup. Gave the FD setup to my cousin for his FB. Giving the Cosmo block to Sung for a "B-backup" block. Keeping my FD block as my "backup" block.

I'll PM you a couple of photos - just stripped down the block about 30 min ago.
