Thread: Modified RWD Greddy Style IM to FWD!!!

I am in the process of modifying a Greddy style IM to fit into my B13 I have a couple of Ideas but any inputs or ideas will be appreciated !!

I am trying to get some kind of results from the shorter runners and the larger plenum on the cheap (I admit that)!!

My basic Ideas are:

Cut and turn the plenum
Cut and change the angle of the TB flange
Adapt the Idle control parts
Some light porting to make sure everything matches

I which I could get at least 20whp from this mod!!

No need to cut that thing up, just make your "cold" charge pipes run on the other side of the engine.
Go out from the turbo to the transmission side and enter the front mount intercooler there. From the oultet of the intercooler go up by the alternator and across the front of the engine and into the throttle body. Done.

LOL @ Ben's solution!

That's not an option on my setup....
Anyway all the cutting and welding wont be very expensive...
And it will look prettier too... jejejejeje

Looking forward to this... Payu Yo tengo un par de fotos para que puedas comparar en una culata high port

Saludos.

JP have you guys done this before ???
If you got any pics send them to [email]jose_payu51@yahoo.com[/email]

I know i have seen that pic. before.... Thats basically what I will do but I will cut and change the angle of the TB flange and get a bigger flange to leave room to change to a bigger TB in the future If I want to.. But my main concern at this point its were to cut the manifold to flip the plennum that doesnt afect the performance of the manifold...

Cut it where the cross-section of the runners is circular to make best use of the symmetry. If it's not circular anywhere, try where the 2D cross section is symmetrical with respect to both the vertical and horizontal planes. I haven't looked inside the RWD Greddy manifold we have here, but it can't be that hard to find. You're not planning on adding any angle to the runners are you? That will make things a bit harder obviously.

My apologies if you weren't asking for help.

No Iam not planning to change the angle of the runners just cut and flip the plennum.. Lets see how it goes...
