FS: D17 KMS intake manifold
selling a used KMS intake manifold for the D17. Had it on the car for 2 years. NOT RECOMMENDED FOR NA USE. I gained 48whp and 26wtq with just adding this manifold. You lose low RPM tq but once you get in to the powerband its great. Selling it to fund other projects. asking 100 plus shipping.

whats the powerband for this manifold? does it retain all the stock sensor fittings and vac lines? any position differences to a stock mani? what did this cost new?

When it was new it went for 400. They only made like 10 of them though.
Everything fits in the stock location. and it fits better than the OEM one. I gained power from 4600 to redline. I also have all the hardware for it aswell. Yes all the stock vacuum lines are used and intact. It was made to be a direct replacement.

Re: FS: D17 KMS intake manifold
were these gains with the P&P head and the stage 3 cam? why did you take this one out to put in a y8 assuming the mods list in the other thread is correct? how high of boost were you running with it?

The dyno results were on a stock motor. I had the TSI fuel kit and the way it sprays fuel in the intake manifold sucks. The fuel pooled up in the bottom of the stock manifold and blew up. Put a baseball size whole in the bottom of the stock manifold. So I went to this.

just report him on paypal and get your money back. after a certain amount of time, you wont be able to contest the seller, so do it while you still have a chance.

Just checked my paypal dispute and I have a tracking number. The deal could be real, just not the best at keeping up lines of communication and following through on his word. Makes you wonder what would have happened had I not filed a Paypal dispute though....

You told me you would ship it right away thorugh PM's, so I had every right to expect it. This has nothing to do with "as fast as I would have liked", nor does it have anything to do with you going to "fight" for my freedom. This is your Red Herring arguement to distract us from the real issue you refuse to face. When people pay for **** they expect for it to be sent regardless of what's going on in your life, and at least keep people informed of your delays if nothing else. It's called personal accountablity. I thought the Military taught that?
This is of no consequence to me. If the money has been taken from my account, you've received it. How you "receive" the money from Paypal is up to you and a dynamic of using Paypal for selling things online. I'm sure you understand this despite your posting.
