Hey guys i thought i'd show you my new manifold setup. I also tried to make it as clean as possible with the throttle assembly delete mod and i hid the coil backs under the intake manifold

Nice!!!!! Does the upper 7MGTE manifold mate on the lower 7MGE runner, or does the 7MGTE maifold bolt up to the 7MGE head? Looks Great!!!!

Very clean! Kinda want to do the same thing with my coil packs but you know changing plug wires is going be a PITA.

it does both. the gte manifold is backwards compatible with the ge vice versa. my maifold is actually from a cressida so is the tb and pretty much everything else i used to do the conversion

then i don't understand why this would be a PITA. 7m's don't reach that mileage anyway :biglaugh:

In all seriousness, bigaaron did the same thing and its easy.

I like the idea as the coilpacks are in a bad position from factory anyway. I just want to know how you get the wires in. I also want to see how you mounted the coils. I am seriously thinking about doing the same to mine. Definatly cheeper than an individual coil setup.:naughty:

Looks good.

I'd like to move my coil packs at some time. I think that the NA cam covers look better anyhow.

@spoolint78: I like your intake manifold mod, too. It makes so much more sense than having the intake routed back over top of the exhaust manifold.
