Default Intake manifold

What are your thoughts with the intake manifold ? Any good brands ? It's hard to find these for our cars , I do hear boring out the old one with a throttle body ?

There is a nice improvement in throttle response and 4-5whp through most the rpm range I found by honing out the stock manifold opening to port match with a larger TB. I run an SOS TB which is a modified OEM. Its worth doing. So is a 8lb flywheel, but debatable unless your already replacing the clutch or need to pull the trans for another reason, unless you yourself can justify the cost and work on its own. These two things really wake this motor up though, further increasing its race engine feel.

I had the Ballade Sports bored out intake manifold and their throttle body. it was a noticeable improvement in throttle response and power. Paired with a lightened flywheel the response is even more drastic. I highly recommend it if your an AP1. The IM is not necessary if you have an AP2.

I do have a stage 2 clutch and lighten flywheel also lol
I wanna pair them up with good injectors to have air and also more fuel going in . Should I not still get the intake manifold ? And just stick with the throttle body ? What are some good injectors ? 750cc? Or too much ?
