John from KMS said that they should be ready to ship by Monday. I can't wait to get it. I just hope I can install it myself. I wonder how much it would cost to have a shop do that. I've asked John, but he said he didn't know of the install price yet. Anyways, I'll post my results hopefully by next Friday if the manifold comes in Monday.

I just got off the phone with John at KMS and as some of you may already know, the intake maniflod will be done hopefully late next week. I also asked him about a bigger throttle body and he told me that we can send ours in and he will replace with a factory one that they has been bored out. The throttle body will flow 65mm of air and the cost is $175.00

You hope are cars aren't that slow? Are you kidding me. They're a hell of a lot slower compared stock to stock. What do you think our cars 115, 117, or 127 hp campared to the Si's 160 hp. I hate to break it to you, but the Si stock is considerably faster than our cars.

Obviously a custom intake manifold and a bored TB extremely helps.!

I dissagree, the SI is maginally faster then an EX coupe. Shure it has 33 more HP but then it also weighs, 190lbs more. try racing with an extra person in the car, you can definitly feel the difference. Shure the SI is faster, but not by much.

ummmmm yea other wise why would you spend almost 700.00 on inner cosmetics and not gain at least a little HP, they do help since the plastic intake manifold is horribly restrictive
