Yes, I couldn't find my stock exhaust elbow to connect my turbo to my exhaust to save my life

So I used alternative measures: I heard there was a n/a at the scrap yard so I got a manifold and power steering reservoir off of it

Read the thread..... Gosh:p

I was wondering if I would get a power gain worth relocating my coil packs by using the na manifold and y pipe instead of the turbo one?

Fair enough... Do you see any issues with the way I am currently running it? Basically identical to a turbo setup(including injectors, maf, coil packs,ect...) differences being na exhaust manifold and the intake straight from throttle body to maf?


I guess what I was thinking (probably wrong) was if the engine gets air more evenly distributed to the cylinders the air would flow "smoother" and be less work for the engine to suck in

Resulting in more power (5 to 10hp) and less stress on the engine (more reliable)

This is based on something I read somewhere probably two years ago...so I might not be even remembering correctly

Thanks so far so good :)

what should I set my aeromotive fpr at during idle? I researched and found stock is like 35-40 but when I set it there I have more power at lower rpms (butt dyno) but my engine cuts out up top it's now set at about 29 (from 26 what it was before) and doesn't cut out but I am not sure where it's supposed to be

And with the ACIS and Y pipe, Cressis had the 7M-GE with no ACIS, and had 190 hp. Supras had ACIS and 200hp. Not worth it to relocate the coil packs and switch the intakes IMO, if all it is is a DD.
