WR intake manifold + T1R turbo kit = Thumbs Up !!

ok so last couple days, i had my car at AJR getting the WR intake manifold installed !
after alittle tuning......
the results are great ! it is the best couple hundred bucks i've ever spent !!
it made the turbo spool up much faster then it was, the sound is deeper too !

i can feel alot more TQ in the low end, and because my car is AT, i lost some TQ when i got the turbo, but with the intake manifold, it is like day and night ! i feel instant power and it starts boosting a couple hundred RPM earlier !!!

and you also gota try this with the blitz throttle controller, it feels like anti-lag !!

over all this makes me LOVE my car even more and once again thanks Ben @ AJR and the staff @ WR !!

keep a close eye on the welds particularly where the intake box connects to the circular tube for the throttle plate. After a few weeks all the vibration caused the welds to crack.

I've since used about 3 sticks of jb weld putty, sanded it down, and then black wrinkle coated it. cant really notice it anymore but now it is starting to crack again. They should have designed a bracket into it where it would have mounted to the stock location. The weight of the piping and engine vibrations over time is the problem.

F'in sucks. I love the manifold. SOOO much more power with it than without a can't give it up.

Yeah the fab part really isnt that great, mine is slanted to the I take side
but I got more low end power then before using emu
are u boosted ?
as for knock I think thats the injectors u are hearing
as it will bounce off the sheet metal
but I can't tell for sure as I have a major exhaust leak between my waste gate

btw: can u post a pic of ur's ??
